Human recombinant Galectin-2 protein, AF

Galectin-2 protein, Human

Galectin-2 (Gal-2) is a lectin family member and structurally closely related to galectin-1. It contains one carbohydrate recognition domain (CRD), responsible for β-galactoside binding, and is biologically active as homodimers. Galectin-2 serves as a proapoptotic effector for activated T cells through caspase-3 signaling. Moreover, galectin-2 has emerged as a crucial factor in driving the macrophage to CD40-positive M1 polarization, leading to arteriogenesis attenuation and collateral arteries remodeling.

Description

Galectin-2 (Gal-2) is a lectin family member and structurally closely related to galectin-1. It contains one carbohydrate recognition domain (CRD), responsible for β-galactoside binding, and is biologically active as homodimers.

Storage & Handling

Lyophilized protein should be stored at -20°C for 1 year. Upon reconstitution, store at 2°C to 8°C for up to 1 week. Further dilute in a buffer containing a carrier protein or stabilizer (e.g. 0.1% BSA, 10%FBS, 5%HSA or 5% trehalose solution), protein aliquots should be stored at -20°C or -80°C for 3-6 months. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles.

Reconstitution

Centrifuge at 3000 rpm for 5 mins before opening. It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized protein in sterile H₂O to a concentration not less than 100 μg/mL and incubate the stock solution at room temperature for at least 20 mins to ensure sufficient re-dissolved. Do Not Vortex! Vigorous shaking may impair the biological activity of the protein.
