General Information about Human Galectin3 (GAL3) recombinant protein
Galectin-3 is a member of the animal lecithin family that binds selectively to β-galactoside residues. The protein is secreted from the cell by exocytosis, which is not related to the classic secretion pathway through the endoplasmic reticulum / Golgi network. Galectin-3 is related to the inhibition of apoptosis and the development of cancer. It is usually distributed in epithelial cells of various organs, several inflammatory cells (including macrophages), dendritic cells and Kupffer cells. The expression of this lectin is regulated during inflammation, cell proliferation, cell differentiation and transactivation of viral proteins. The recombinant Galectin-3 protein was expressed in E. coli and purified by conventional chromatography techniques.
