Galectin-10 (also called Charcot-Leyden Crystal protein) is a 16 kDa member of the galectin family of β-Galactoside binding proteins that bind to S-type animal lectins, is expressed solely in eosinophilic and basophilic leukocytes. This protein regulates immune responses through the recognition of cell-surface glycans. Essential for the anergy and suppressive function of CD25-positive regulatory T-cells.

Endotoxin Test:
<0.1 EU per 1 μg of the protein by the LAL method.
Purity:
>98% as determined by SDS-PAGE. Ni-NTA chromatography
Formulation:
The protein was lyophilized from a solution containing 1X PBS, pH 7.4.
Reconstitution:
It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized protein in sterile H2O to a concentration not less than 100 μg/mL and incubate the stock solution for at least 20 min to ensure sufficient re-dissolved.
Storage:
Lyophilized protein should be stored at -20°C. Upon reconstitution, protein aliquots should be stored at -20°C or -80°C.
Note:
Please use within one month after protein reconstitution.
