Hu Galectin-1, 1000 _g

Recombinant Beta-Galactoside-Binding Lectin for Immunology and Oncology Research

STEMCELL Technologies supplies this 1000 ug vial of recombinant Human Galectin-1 (LGALS1), a 14 kDa carbohydrate-binding protein used in studies of T-cell apoptosis, immune tolerance, angiogenesis, and tumor microenvironment biology. The purified protein is provided in a single-use vial and is suited to cell-based assays, glycan binding characterization, and protein-protein interaction workflows in research use only contexts.

Investigators apply this reagent to model galectin-mediated cell death of activated lymphocytes, probe carbohydrate recognition domain (CRD) interactions in vitro, and complement co-culture systems evaluating regulatory T-cell activity and epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition signaling. Aliquot upon first thaw to minimize freeze-thaw cycles, store at -20 degrees C, and protect from light to maintain binding activity throughout the shelf life of the preparation.
