Allgemeine Beschreibung

Galectin-8 is one of the β-galactoside-binding lectins called galectins, which reside in the cytosol before being released in a signal sequence-independent pathway.

Biochem./physiol. Wirkung

Galectin-8 functions as a danger receptor and thus, prevents the proliferation of Salmonella. It detects host glycans found on the surface of damaged Salmonella-containing vacuoles. It also maintains the endo-lysosomal integrity. This protein prevents the adhesion of human carcinoma cells to integrin-ligand coated plates. This results in induction of apoptosis.
Galectin-8 is a family member of animal lectins which selectively binds β-galactoside residues. It is a widely expressed 34 kDa protein, which is secreted by many cell types. Galectin-8 is made of two homol­o­gous regions, each having a single carbohydrate recognition domain (CRD), linked by a short peptide. Galectin-8 acts as a physiological modulator of cell adhesion and cellular growth, and may be involved in neoplastic transformation.

Physikalische Form

Solution containing 20 mM Tris, pH 7.4, 1 mM DTT, 1 mM EDTA, and 30% glycerol.

Hinweis zur Analyse

The biological activity is measured by its ability to agglutinate human red cells.

Autophagy defends the mammalian cytosol against bacterial infection. Efficient pathogen engulfment is mediated by cargo-selecting autophagy adaptors that rely on unidentified pattern-recognition or danger receptors to label invading pathogens as autophagy cargo, typically by polyubiquitin coating. Here we show in

Galectins, a family of mammalian lectins with specificity to beta-galactosides, are involved in growth-regulatory mechanisms and cell adhesion. A relationship is assumed to exist between the levels of expression of galectins and the level of malignancy in human gliomas. A

The interaction of cells with the extracellular matrix regulates cell adhesion, motility, growth, survival and differentiation through integrin-mediated signal transduction. Here we demonstrate that galectin-8, a secreted mammalian (beta)-galactoside binding protein, inhibits adhesion of human carcinoma (1299) cells to plates
