Product Description :
Galectin-3/LGALS3 Protein is a type of galactoside-binding lectin that has a high binding affinity for carbohydrates with β-galactoside linkages. Galectin-3/LGALS3 Protein interacts with glycosylated proteins to mediate intercellular interactions and adhesion to the extracellular matrix. Galectin-3/LGALS3 Protein plays various roles, including regulating signaling pathways such as Wnt/β-catenin, affecting cell proliferation and survival, modulating immune functions, and influencing tumor progression. Galectin-3/LGALS3 Protein, Human is a recombinant galectin-3/LGALS3 protein expressed in E. coli [1] [2] .
SpeciesSummary :
Human
Background :
Galectin-3/LGALS3 Protein is widely distributed in most tissues and is extensively expressed in specific tissues, with extracellular, membrane-bound, cytoplasmic, and nuclear localization [1] .
The preferred ligand for Galectin-3/LGALS3 Protein is N-acetylglucosamine, which is also the only galectin that contains a conserved N domain and a single carbohydrate recognition domain (CRD). The N domain allows the formation of multimer complexes with proteins that do not bind to carbohydrate targets [1] .
Galectin-3/LGALS3 Protein has a variety of cell functions, including regulating environment-sensitive cell adhesion or splitting, modulating clathrin-independent endocytosis, controlling intracellular signaling through interactions with membrane-bound signal complexes, regulating Wnt/β-catenin signaling, affecting the activity of transcription factors like TTF-1 and STAT, influencing mRNA maturation by affecting spliceosome function, repairing DNA damage, inducing late G1 cell cycle arrest, promoting cell proliferation, and enhancing cell survival through anti-apoptotic effects via Bcl2 [1] .
Galectin-3/LGALS3 Protein is involved in immune function. It enhances innate immunity by cleaning up cellular debris, promoting the production of respiratory burst enzymes, serving as a specific phagocytic signal for MerTK, and acting as a warning signal in the central nervous system; additionally, it can promote adaptive immunity by regulating T cell activation [2] .
Galectin-3/LGALS3 Protein is closely related to pathological processes such as tumors, cardiovascular diseases, and acute kidney injury [3] [4] [5] .
