What are the advantages of a recombinant monoclonal antibody?
This product is a recombinant monoclonal antibody, which offers several advantages including:

  • - High batch-to-batch consistency and reproducibility
  • - Improved sensitivity and specificity
  • - Long-term security of supply
  • - Animal-free batch production

For more information, read more on recombinant antibodies.

Conjugation ready
Our carrier-free antibodies are typically supplied in a PBS-only formulation, purified and free of BSA, sodium azide and glycerol. This conjugation-ready format is designed for use with fluorochromes, metal isotopes, oligonucleotides, and enzymes, which makes them ideal for antibody labelling, functional and cell-based assays, flow-based assays (e.g. mass cytometry) and Multiplex Imaging applications.

Use our conjugation kits for antibody conjugates that are ready-to-use in as little as 20 minutes with 1 minute hands-on-time and 100% antibody recovery: available for fluorescent dyes, HRP, biotin and gold.

Sandwich ELISA
The recommended antibody orientation is based on internal optimization for ELISA-based assays. Antibody orientation is assay dependent and needs to be optimized for each assay type. Please note that the range provided for this antibody is only an estimation based on the performance of the product using the recommended antibody pair. Performance of the antibody pair will depend on the specific characteristics of your assay. We guarantee the product works in sandwich ELISA, but we do not guarantee the sensitivity or dynamic range of the antibody in your assay.

Supplementary information

Galectin 7 also known as Gal-7 is a member of the galectin family of beta-galactoside-binding proteins. It has a molecular mass of approximately 15 kDa. Structurally Galectin 7 has a single carbohydrate recognition domain (CRD) which allows it to bind glycoconjugates. Galectin 7 expresses in various tissues with high expression levels in the epidermis and in stratified squamous epithelia.
Biological function summary

Galectin 7 plays a role in cell-cell adhesion apoptosis regulation and immune response modulation. It plays a role in the cell's apoptosis machinery and interacts with the cytochrome c release pathway. This protein does not typically form a part of large complexes functioning individually in most biological processes. It can influence keratinocyte migration indicating involvement in wound healing processes.

Pathways

Galectin 7 participates in the apoptosis and cell adhesion pathways. It works alongside proteins such as Bcl-2 and Bax to regulate programmed cell death by promoting apoptosis. Additionally it interacts with matrix metalloproteinases influencing the remodelling of extracellular matrix a critical component of tissue repair and immune response.

Galectin 7 is associated with cancer and psoriasis. In cancer it can act as a pro-apoptotic factor and modulates tumor progression often in concert with p53 a well-known tumor suppressor protein. In psoriasis aberrant expression of Galectin 7 correlates with impaired epidermal function and inflammation suggesting it may alter the disease course by influencing local immune responses and keratinocyte behavior.
