LGALS8 His Recombinant Protein

Source : Escherichia Coli. LGALS8 Human Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain containing 337 amino acids (1-317 a.a.) and having a molecular mass of 37.9 kDa. The LGALS8 is fused to a 20 amino acid His-Tag at N-terminus and purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques. LGALS8 is a prostate-specific antigen that is solely overexpressed in malignant tumors and thus is a supplementary specific identifier of malignancies. LGALS8 is part of the galectin gene family which facilitates both cell-cell and cell matrix interactions in a method parallel to the selectin subgroup of C-type lectins.
