Human Galectin-1 belongs to a large family of carbohydrate-binding proteins that contain structural similarities in there carboyhydrate recognition domains. Galectin-1, also known as L-14, BHL or galaptin, can be either monomeric or homodimeric, and is found in a wide varity of cells and tissue types. Galectin-1 controls cell growth and proliferation and induces apoptosis of activated T cells. It can also modulate cytokine secretion or inhibit pro-inflammatory cytokine production. Galectin-1 plays an important role in acute and chronic inflammation. Galectin-1 is comprised of 134 amino acids with a molecular weight of 14.5kD.\n\nEndotoxin: <0.01ng/ug or <0.1EU/ug as per LAL\n\nBiological Activity: Human Galectin-1 is a chemoattract for human blood monocytes. ED 50 range is from 0.05 пїЅ 3.0ug/ml.\n\nAA Sequence:\nACGLVASNLN LKPGECLRVR GEVAPDAKSF VLNLGKDSNN LCLHFNPRFN AHGDANTIVC NSKDGGAWGT EQREAVFPFQ PGSVAEVCIT FDQANLTVKL PDGYEFKFPN RLNLEAINYM AADGDFKIKC VAFD \n\nStorage and Stability:\nLyophilized powder may be stored at -20 degrees C.
