Human recombinant Galectin-10 protein, AF

Galectin-10 (Gal-10) is a lectin family member and is one of the prototype galectins. It contains one carbohydrate recognition domain (CRD), responsible for β-galactoside binding, and is biologically active as homodimers. It has been reported that galectin-10 is presented in eosinophils but also detected in basophils and macrophages. Accumulated evidence indicates that galectin-10 spontaneously forms Charcot-Leyden crystals (CLCs), participating in allergic responses and related inflammatory reactions. Several binding partners for galectin-10 have been identified, including eosinophil granule cationic ribonucleases, eosinophil-derived neurotoxin (EDN, RNS2), and eosinophil cationic protein (ECP, RNS3), demonstrating the interaction is essential for eosinophil differentiation and granulogenesis.

Bioactivity

Testing in process

Form

The protein was lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered solution containing 1X PBS, pH 7.4. If you have any concerns or special requirements, please confirm with us.

Reconstitution

Centrifuge at 3000 rpm for 5 mins before opening. It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized protein in sterile H2O to a concentration not less than 100 μg/mL and incubate the stock solution at room temperature for at least 20 mins to ensure sufficient re-dissolved. Do Not Vortex! Vigorous shaking may impair the biological activity of the protein.

Molecular Weight

The protein has a calculated MW of 16.31 kDa. The protein migrates as 16-19 kDa under reducing condition (SDS-PAGE analysis) .

Storage Conditions

Lyophilized protein should be stored at -20°C for 1 year. Upon reconstitution, store at 2°C to 8°C for up to 1 week. Further dilute in a buffer containing a carrier protein or stabilizer (e.g. 0.1% BSA, 10%FBS, 5%HSA or 5% trehalose solution), protein aliquots should be stored at -20°C or -80°C for 3-6 months. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles.
