{"product_id":"biolegend-126702","title":"Biolegend, 126702, Purified anti-mouse\/human Galectin-3 (Mac-2) Antibody, 500μg","description":"\u003cp\u003eGalectin-3 (galactose-specific lectin 3) is a glycoprotein, also known as Mac-2, Gal-3, RL-29, galactose-specific lectin 3, CBP-35, L-34, and εBP. It is a member of animal β-galactoside-binding protein family that is expressed in cell nucleus, cytoplasm, plasma membrane, or extracellular matrix by variety of tumor cells, monocytes\/macrophages, epithelial cells, Kupffer cells, and dendritic cells. Galectin-3 contains carbohydrate recognition domains and binds to β-galactoside residues bearing glycoproteins, such as as IgE, IgA, galactose, casein kinase I, laminin, mucin, LAMPs, and CD66. Galectin-3 is an adhesion molecule and plays an important role in regulation of cell proliferation, differentiation and tumor cell metastasis. Galectin-3 structurely possesses NWGR motif that is conserved in BH-1 domain of BCL-2 family and functions as an anti-apoptotic molecule.\u003cbr\u003e\n500μg\u003cbr\u003e\nVerified Reactivity: Mouse, Human\u003cbr\u003e\nReported Reactivity: African Green, Baboon, Cynomolgus\u003cbr\u003e\nAntibody Type: Monoclonal\u003cbr\u003e\nHost Species: Mouse\u003cbr\u003e\nImmunogen: Human Recombinant (partial), amino acids 151-251\u003cbr\u003e\nFormulation: Phosphate-buffered solution, pH 7.2, containing 0.09% sodium azide.\u003cbr\u003e\nPreparation: The antibody was purified by affinity chromatography.\u003cbr\u003e\nConcentration: 0.5 mg\/mL\u003cbr\u003e\nStorage \u0026amp; Handling: The antibody solution should be stored undiluted between 2°C and 8°C.\u003cbr\u003e\nApplication: WB - Quality tested ICC - Verified\u003cbr\u003e\nRecommended Usage: Each lot of this antibody is quality control tested by Western blotting. For Western blotting, the suggested use of this reagent is 1.0 µg per ml. For immunocytochemistry, a concentration of \u0026lt; 0.5 μg\/ml is recommended. It is recommended that the reagent be titrated for optimal performance for each application.\u003cbr\u003e\nApplication Notes: Based on immunogen information, clone Gal397 may recognize African Green Baboon and Cynomolgus. It is recommended to test the reagent for optimal performance for other species. Due to in-house testing, the purified format is not recommended for flow cytometry and intracellular flow cytometry.\u003cbr\u003e\nProduct Citations: Bülck C, et al. 2023. Sci Adv. 9:eadf4055.
