背景描述 | Galectin-9 (Gal-9) is a lectin family member and is one of the tandem repeat-type galectins containing two carbohydrate recognition domains (CRD) connected by a linker region in a single peptide chain. The CRD is responsible for β-galactoside binding, and several binding partners for galectin-9 have been identified, including CD44, FGL, Gcgr, GLUT- 2, IgE, IgM, PDI, and Tim-3. Galectin-9 is constitutively presented in the small intestine, liver, uterine epithelial cells, skin epidermis, and esophageal epithelium. Galectin-9 contributing to cell growth, differentiation, adhesion, communication, and death. Accumulated evidence indicates that Gal-9 blockade promotes T cell immunity against tumors, suggesting that galectin-9 is a promising target for immunotherapy. |

产品应用 | Cell Culture |
1. Before opening, centrifuge at 3000 rpm for 5 mins.
2.Initial Reconstitution
· Reconstitute the Lyophilized Protein in sterile H₂O to a concentration of 100-200 μg/mL.
· Then, incubate it at room temperature for at least 20 mins to ensure sufficient dissolution.
Do Not Vortex! Vigorous shaking may impair the biological activity of the protein.
· Store at 2°C to 8°C for up to 1 week.
3.Extended Storage
· After the initial reconstitution, further dilute the reconstituted protein in a buffer containing a carrier protein or stabilizer (e.g., 0.1% BSA, 10% FBS, 5% HSA, or 5% trehalose solution). The final concentration is not less than 10 μg/ml.
· Prepare aliquots (≥20 μl).
· Store at -20°C or -80°C for 3 to 6 months.
Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
储存 | Lyophilized Protein: Store at -20°C for 1 year. Initial Reconstitution: Store at 2°C to 8°C for up to 1 week. Extended Storage: Store at -20°C or -80°C for 3 to 6 months with a carrier protein or stabilizer. |
