Extra Details:
Galectin 2, also known as Lgals2, belongs to the galectins family. Galectins are a family of soluble beta-galactoside-binding animal lectins that modulate cell-to-cell adhesion and cell-to-extracellular matrix (ECM) interactions and play a role in tumor progression, pre-mRNA splicing and apoptosis. Lgals2 is a monomeric or homodimeric prototype galectin that is expressed in hepatoma, stomach epithelial cells and in colorectal and neural tumors. It induces apoptosis in activated T cells and binds to the cytokine lymphotoxin-a (LTA) with possible implications in risk of myocardial infarction. Human and mouse Lgals2 share ~65% aa sequence similarity. Source: Recombinant protein corresponding to aa1-130 from mouse Lgals2, fused to His-tag at N-terminal expressed in E. coli. Molecular Weight: ~17.3kD(153aa) Biological Activity: Measured by its agglutinate human red blood cells, the ED50 for this effect is ≤20 ug/ml.
