• Cat.No.: LGALS4-412C
• Product Overview: Active Recombinant Bovine LGALS4 protein(Q3T0D6)(1~332 aa), fused with N-terminal His tag, was expressed in E.coli.

Specification

• Species: Bovine
• Source: E.coli
• Tag: His
• Protein Length: 1-332 aa
• Form: Lyophilized from sterile PBS, pH7.4, containing 0.01% SKL, 1mM DTT, 5% Trehalose and Proclin300.
• Bio-activity: Galectin-4(GAL4) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the LGALS4 gene. The galectins are a family of beta-galactoside-binding proteins implicated in modulating cell-cell and cell-matrix interactions. LGALS4 is an S-type lectin that is strongly underexpressed in colorectal cancer. In this case, we chose rabbit erythrocyte (RaE) to assay its ability of agglutination. A general procedure for hemagglutination assay (or haemagglutination assay; HA) is as follows, two-fold dilute the recombinant cattle GAL4 with 0.9% sodium chloride injection, add 50μL a serial dilution of GAL4 to each well of a U or V-bottom shaped 96-well microtiter plate. The final well serves as a negative control without GAL4, replace with 50μL 0.9% sodium chloride injection. Then add 50μL 1% rabbit erythrocyte to each well and mixed gently. The plate is incubated for 3 hours at room temperature. The results are shown. It was obvious that the minimal effective concentration of GAL4 is 3.1 μg/mL.
• Molecular Mass: 40.9kDa
• Endotoxin: <1.0EU per 1μg (determined by the LAL method).
• Purity: > 90% as determined by SDS-PAGE.
• Storage: Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles. Store at -20°C for 12 months. Aliquot and store at -80°C for 12 months.
• Reconstitution: Reconstitute in 10mM PBS (pH7.4) to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/mL. Do not vortex.
