Background

Galectin-1 belongs to growing family of evolutionary conserved animal lectins. Galectins consists of Beta -galactoside binding lectins that contain homologous carbohydrate recognition domains (CRDs). Galectin-1 has the ability to induce apoptosis of activated T-cells and T-leukaemia cell lines. Other activities include cell differentiation and inhibition activity of CD45 protein phosphatase activity. Galectin also binds Beta -galactoside as well as CD45, CD3 and CD4. Recombinant Human Galectin is a 14.5 kDa protein consisting of 134 amino acid residues.
