LGALS3 encodes a member of the galectin family of carbohydrate binding proteins. Members of this protein family have an affinity for beta-galactosides. lectin, galactoside binding soluble 3 is characterized by an N-terminal proline-rich tandem repeat domain and a single C-terminal carbohydrate recognition domain. lectin, galactoside binding soluble 3 can self-associate through the N-terminal domain allowing it to bind to multivalent saccharide ligands. lectin, galactoside binding soluble 3 localizes to the extracellular matrix, the cytoplasm and the nucleus. lectin, galactoside binding soluble 3 plays a role in numerous cellular functions including apoptosis, innate immunity, cell adhesion and T-cell regulation. lectin, galactoside binding soluble 3 exhibits antimicrobial activity against bacteria and fungi. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

NCBI Description

This gene encodes a member of the galectin family of carbohydrate binding proteins. Members of this protein family have an affinity for beta-galactosides. The encoded protein is characterized by an N-terminal proline-rich tandem repeat domain and a single C-terminal carbohydrate recognition domain. This protein can self-associate through the N-terminal domain allowing it to bind to multivalent saccharide ligands. This protein localizes to the extracellular matrix, the cytoplasm and the nucleus. This protein plays a role in numerous cellular functions including apoptosis, innate immunity, cell adhesion and T-cell regulation. The protein exhibits antimicrobial activity against bacteria and fungi. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants.[provided by RefSeq, Oct 2014]

Product Notes

The Gal-3 lgals3 (Catalog #AAA9700268) is an Antibody produced from Mouse and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The Galectin-3 Monoclonal Antibody reacts with Human and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's Galectin-3 can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Western Blot (WB), Immunofluorescence (IF), Immunohistochemistry (IHC) Paraffin. WB: 1:2000 IF: 1:100-1:200 IHC-P: 1:200. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the Gal-3 lgals3 for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Galectin-3, Monoclonal Antibody" 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.
