His |
N-term |
C-term |
|
Purity |
> 95% as determined by Bis-Tris PAGE |
Endotoxin Level |
Less than 1 EU per μg by the LAL method. |
Expression System |
HEK293 |
Theoretical Molecular Weight |
28.5 kDa |
Apparent Molecular Weight |
Due to glycosylation, the protein migrates to 43-50 kDa based on Bis-Tris PAGE result. |
Formulation |
Lyophilized from 0.22 μm filtered solution in PBS, 300 mM L-arginine (pH 7.4). |
Reconstitution |
Centrifuge the tube before opening. Reconstituting to a concentration more than 100 μg/ml is recommended. Dissolve the lyophilized protein in distilled water. |
Storage & Stability |
Upon receiving, the product remains stable up to 6 months at -20 °C or below. Upon reconstitution, the product should be stable for 3 months at -80 °C. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. |
Target Background |
Galectin-3 (Gal-3) is a 30 kDa β-galactose, highly conserved and widely distributed intracellularly and extracellularly. Gal-3 has been demonstrated in recent years to be a novel inflammatory factor participating in the process of intravascular inflammation, lipid endocytosis, macrophage activation, cellular proliferation, monocyte chemotaxis, and cell adhesion. |
