Synonyms
Lectin Galactoside Binding Soluble 16, Galectin16, Galectin-16, LGALS-16, LGALS16.
Introduction
Galectin-16 (LGALS16) binds lactose with high affinity. LGALS16 is a strong inducer of T-cell apoptosis.
Description
LGALS16 Human Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing having a molecular mass of 16kDa.
The LGALS16 also appears as a homodimer and therefore a 32kDa band is observed as well.
Source
Escherichia Coli.
Physical Appearance
Sterile Filtered colorless solution.
Formulation
1x PBS, pH-7.4.
Stability
The Recombinant LGALS16 protein although stable at 4°C for 1 week, should be stored below
-18°C. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA).
Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles.
