  • Description
    LGALS7, also known as Galectin-7, is a member of the galectins family. The galectins are a family of beta-galactoside-binding proteins. There are at least 14 identified members in this family. Galectins share similarities in the CRD (the carbohydrate recognition domain). They are synthesized as cytosolic proteins. Though localized principally in the cytoplasm and lacking a classical signal peptide, galectins can also be stimulated to secretion by non-classical pathways or alternatively targeted to the nucleus. Galectins are implicated in modulating cell-cell and cell-matrix interactions. LGALS7 contains 1 galectin domain and is mainly expressed in stratified squamous epithelium. Galectin-7 could be involved in cell-cell and/or cell-matrix interactions necessary for normal growth control. LGALS7 is a pro-apoptotic protein that functions intracellularly upstream of JNK activation and cytochrome c release.

  • Source/Expression Host
    E. coli
  • Expression Plasmid/cDNA
    A DNA sequence encoding the human LGALS7 (NP_002298.1) (Ser2-Phe136) was expressed with a polyhistidine tag at the N-terminus.
  • Protein Species
    Human
  • Molecular weight
    The recombinant human LGALS7 consists of 153 amino acids and predicts a molecular mass of 17.2 KDa. It migrates as an approximately 18 KDa band in SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions.
  • Purity
    > 90 % as determined by SDS-PAGE
  • Activity
    Measured by its ability to agglutinate guinea pig red blood cells.
    The ED50 for this effect is typically 2-10 μg/mL.
