Galectin-8/LGALS8, Rat (His)

Galectin-8 belongs to the family of animal lectins that bind to different glycoconjugates. Galectin-8 inhibits MTOR and AMPK signaling pathways to induce autophagy in response to lysosomal damage. Galectin-8 is highly expressed in a variety of tumors. Galectin-8 Protein, Rat (His) is the recombinant rat-derived Galectin-8, expressed by E. coli, with N-6*His labeled tag. The total length of Galectin-8 Protein, Rat (His) is 316 a.a..
