Invitrogen™ Human Galectin-8 ELISA Kit

Description

ELISA

Human Galectin-8 quantitates human Galectin-8 in serum, plasma, supernatant. The assay will exclusively recognize both natural and recombinant human Galectin-8.

This gene encodes a member of the galectin family. Galectins are beta-galactoside-binding animal lectins with conserved carbohydrate recognition domains. The galectins have been implicated in many essential functions including development, differentiation, cell-cell adhesion, cell-matrix interaction, growth regulation, apoptosis, and RNA splicing. This gene is widely expressed in tumoral tissues and seems to be involved in integrin-like cell interactions. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified.
