Galectin-1/LGALS1 Protein, Human (His)

Customer Review

Based on 1 Customer Validation

Galectin-1/LGALS1 is a lectin that binds β-galactoside and complex carbohydrates and regulates apoptosis, proliferation, and differentiation. It inhibits CD45 phosphatase activity, blocks Lyn kinase dephosphorylation, and induces T cell apoptosis. Galectin-1/LGALS1 Protein, Human (His) is the recombinant human-derived Galectin-1/LGALS1 protein, expressed by E. coli , with C-6*His labeled tag.

Biological Activity

Description

Galectin-1/LGALS1 is a lectin that binds β-galactoside and complex carbohydrates and regulates apoptosis, proliferation, and differentiation. It inhibits CD45 phosphatase activity, blocks Lyn kinase dephosphorylation, and induces T cell apoptosis. Galectin-1/LGALS1 Protein, Human (His) is the recombinant human-derived Galectin-1/LGALS1 protein, expressed by E. coli , with C-6*His labeled tag.

Background

The Galectin-1/LGALS1 protein serves as a lectin with the ability to bind beta-galactoside and a diverse range of complex carbohydrates. It plays a pivotal role in the regulation of apoptosis, cell proliferation, and cell differentiation. Galectin-1/LGALS1 exerts its influence by inhibiting the protein phosphatase activity of CD45, consequently impeding the dephosphorylation of Lyn kinase. Additionally, it acts as a potent inducer of T-cell apoptosis. Existing as a homodimer, Galectin-1/LGALS1 forms interactions with a variety of cellular entities, including CD2, CD3, CD4, CD6, CD7, CD43, ALCAM, and CD45. It also binds LGALS3BP, laminin (via poly-N-acetyllactosamine), and SUSD2. Notably, Galectin-1/LGALS1 engages in an interaction with the cargo receptor TMED10, facilitating translocation from the cytoplasm into the endoplasmic reticulum-Golgi intermediate compartment (ERGIC) and subsequent secretion.
