Function
Binds galactosides. Has high affinity for the Forssman pentasaccharide. May play a role in thymocyte-epithelial interactions relevant to the biology of the thymus. Inhibits cell proliferation. It is a ligand for HAVCR2/TIM3. Induces T-helper type 1 lymphocyte (Th1) death. Isoform Short acts as an eosinophil chemoattractant. -
Tissue specificity
Peripheral blood leukocytes and lymphatic tissues. Overexpressed in Hodgkin disease tissue. -
Sequence similarities
Contains 2 galectin domains. -
Domain
Contains two homologous but distinct carbohydrate-binding domains. -
Cellular localization
Cytoplasm. Secreted. May also be secreted by a non-classical secretory pathway. - Information by UniProt

Western blot - Anti-galectin 9/Gal-9 antibody [EPR23853-132] (ab275877)All lanes : Anti-galectin 9/Gal-9 antibody [EPR23853-132] (ab275877) at 1/1000 dilution
Lane 1 : Mouse thymus tissue lysate
Lane 2 : Mouse liver tissue lysate
Lane 3 : Mouse lung tissue lysate
Lane 4 : Mouse brain tissue lysate
Lane 5 : EL4.IL-2 (mouse lymphoma t lymphocyte) whole cell lysate
Lane 6 : RAW 264.7 (mouse abelson murine leukemia virus-induced tumor macrophage) whole cell lysate
Lane 7 : NIH/3T3 (mouse embryonic fibroblast) whole cell lysate
Lysates/proteins at 40 µg per lane.
Secondary
Lanes 1-4 : Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG, (H+L), Peroxidase conjugated (ab97051) at 1/50000 dilution
Lanes 5-7 : Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (HRP) (ab97051) at 1/50000 dilution
Predicted band size: 40 kDa
Observed band size: 15,36,40 kDa why is the actual band size different from the predicted?Blocking and diluting buffer and concentration: 5% NFDM/TBST.
Bands of 40KDa and 36KDa respectively represent two different isoforms.
Band of 15KDa may represents the cleaved form.
The molecular weight observed is consistent with what has been described in the literature (PMID: 9038233, 11886844, 22805533, 15811318).
Low expression: mouse brain (PMID: 9038233).
Samples are non-boiled as boiling may cause protein aggregates.
Exposure time: Lanes 1-2: 5.5 seconds; Lanes 3-6: 37 seconds; Lanes 7: 3 minutes.
