Usage Notes
* Do not mix components from different kit lots or use reagents beyond the kit expiration date.
* Allow all reagents to warm to room temperature for at least 30 minutes before opening.
* Pre-rinse the pipet tip with reagent, use fresh pipet tips for each sample, standard and reagent to avoid contamination.
* Unused wells must be kept desiccated at 4 degree C in the sealed bag provided.
* Mix Thoroughly is very important for the result. It is recommended using low frequency oscillator or slight hand shaking every 10 minutes.
* It is recommended that all samples and standards be assayed in duplicate or triplicate.
Preparation and Storage
Store at 2-8 degree C.

Description: This Human Galectin-12 (LGALS12) ELISA Kit employs a two-site sandwich ELISA to quantitate LGALS12 in samples. An antibody specific for LGALS12 has been pre-coated onto a microplate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and any LGALS12 present is bound by the immobilized antibody. After removing any unbound substances, a biotin-conjugated antibody specific for LGALS12 is added to the wells. After washing, Streptavidin conjugated Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP) is added to the wells. Following a wash to remove any unbound avidin-enzyme reagent, a substrate solution is added to the wells and color develops in proportion to the amount of LGALS12 bound in the initial step. The color development is stopped and the intensity of the color is measured.

Background: Galectins constitute a family of proteins that bind to beta-galactoside residues and have diverse physiological functions. Report on the identification of a galectin-like molecule, galectin-12, in a human adipose tissue cDNA library. The protein contained two potential carbohydrate-recognition domains with the second carbohydrate-recognition domain being less conserved compared with other galectins. Galectin-12 mRNA was predominantly expressed in adipose tissue of human and mouse and in differentiated 3T3-L1 adipocytes. Caloric restriction and treatment of obese animals with troglitazone increased galectin-12 mRNA levels and decreased the average size of the cells in adipose tissue.

NCBI Description

This gene encodes a member of the galectin superfamily, a group of beta-galactoside-binding proteins with conserved carbohydrate recognition domains. The related mouse protein is a primary regulator of the early stages of adipose tissue development. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described. [provided by RefSeq, May 2010]

Uniprot Description

LGALS12: Binds lactose. May participate in the apoptosis of adipocytes. 6 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.

Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 11q13

Cellular Component: mitochondrion; nucleus

Molecular Function: lactose binding

Product Notes

The Human LGALS12 lgals12 (Catalog #AAA9715488) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA9715488 ELISA Kit recognizes Human LGALS12. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Galectin-12 (LGALS12), ELISA Kit" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.
