General description
Galectin-3 belongs to the galectin gene family, which is defined by the specificity of a carbohydrate recognition domain (CRD) for Gal/Lac. Galectin-3 expression is usually elevated in a wide range of neoplastic cell types. The galectin CRD consists of 135 amino acids. Galectin-3 is known to play a role in tumor development, apoptosis, and cell cycle progression.
Specificity
This antibody recognizes the Pro64 mutation domain of Galectin-3. It is equally specific for wild-type or mutant His64 Galectin-3.
Immunogen
Epitope: Pro64 mutation domain
KLH-conjugated linear peptide corresponding to the Pro64 mutation domain of human Galectin-3.
