Description | Description: Rabbit IgG polyclonal antibody for galectin 9(LGALS9) detection. Tested with WB in Human;Rat. Background: Galectin-9 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the LGALS9 gene. It is mapped to 17q11.2. The galectins are a family of beta-galactoside-binding proteins implicated in modulating cell-cell and cell-matrix interactions. The protein encoded by this gene is an S-type lectin. It is overexpressed in Hodgkin's disease tissue and might participate in the interaction between the H&RS cells with their surrounding cells and might thus play a role in the pathogenesis of this disease and / or its associated immunodeficiency. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene. |
Immunogen | Immunogen: A synthetic peptide corresponding to a sequence at the C-terminus of human galectin 9 (322-355aa DGQHLFEYYHRLRNLPTINRLEVGGDIQLTHVQT), different from the related mouse sequence by eight amino acids, and from the related rat sequence by six amino acids. Ig Type: Rabbit IgG |
