Properties
Sensitivity | <10pg/ml *Sensitivity, or Lower Limit of Detection (LLD), is the minimum level of target protein the ELISA assay can detect. We measure 20 blank wells and if the O.D. value is 2 standard deviations higher than the blanks' average O.D. the sample can be deemed positive. |
---|---|
Assay Range | 156pg/ml-10000pg/ml *This assay range is determined using common samples. For samples with low target protein concentrations, users can adjust the standard curve to extend the lower limit of assay range. |
Sample Type | cell culture supernates, cell lysates, serum and plasma (heparin, EDTA). *The above listed samples are the ones valided with the assay. If you do not see your sample of interest listed, as long as there is enough level of target protein present in the sample, this Picokine™ ELISA kit should detect it. **For protocol and tips regarding preparing your sample of interest, please check our ELISA sample preparation guide. |
Capture Antibody | monoclonal antibody from mouse |
Detection Antibody | polyclonal antibody from goat |

Gene Name | LGALS3 |
---|---|
Protein Name | Galectin-3 |
Molecular Weight | 26152 MW |
Protein Function | Galactose-specific lectin which binds IgE. May mediate with the alpha-3, beta-1 integrin the stimulation by CSPG4 of endothelial cells migration. Together with DMBT1, required for terminal differentiation of columnar epithelial cells during early embryogenesis (By similarity). In the nucleus: acts as a pre-mRNA splicing factor. Involved in acute inflammatory responses including neutrophil activation and adhesion, chemoattraction of monocytes macrophages, opsonization of apoptotic neutrophils, and activation of mast cells. . |
Tissue Specificity | A major expression is found in the colonic epithelium. It is also abundant in the activated macrophages. Expressed in fetal membranes. . |
Sequence Similarities | Contains 1 galectin domain. |
Subcellular Localization | Cytoplasm. Nucleus. Secreted. Secreted by a non-classical secretory pathway and associates with the cell surface. |

*The typical data is obtained from Boster's internal QC result and for reference only. It may differ from the lab test results of the end users. It is more important that the user's lab test results reflect the same linearity demonstrated in the typical data than achieving exactly the same O.D. values.
