Related Product Information for anti-LGALS8 antibody
This gene encodes a member of the galectin family. Galectins are beta-galactoside-binding animal lectins with conserved carbohydrate recognition domains. The galectins have been implicated in many essential functions including development, differentiation, cell-cell adhesion, cell-matrix interaction, growth regulation, apoptosis, and RNA splicing. This gene is widely expressed in tumoral tissues and seems to be involved in integrin-like cell interactions. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified.

Product Notes
The LGALS8 lgals8 (Catalog #AAA6424654) is an Antibody produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The LGALS8 (Galectin-8, Gal-8, Prostate Carcinoma Tumor Antigen 1, PCTA1, PCTA-1, Po66-CBP) (MaxLight 490) reacts with Human, Mouse, Rat and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's LGALS8 can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Flow Cytometry (FC/FACS), Western Blot (WB), Immunoprecipitation (IP), Immunohistochemistry (IHC), Immunocytochemistry (ICC). Applications are based on unconjugated antibody. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the LGALS8 lgals8 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 "LGALS8, Polyclonal 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.Precautions
