Deionized or distilled water. 500 mL graduated cylinders. Test tubes for dilution.

Application Details

Application Notes: Before using Kit, spin tubes and bring down all components to bottom of tube. Duplicate well assay was recommended for both standard and sample testing.

Sample Volume: 100 μL

Plate: Pre-coated

Protocol: ELISA Kit is based on standard sandwich enzyme-linked immune-sorbent assay technology. An antibody has been precoated onto 96-well plates. Standards and test samples are added to the wells, a biotinylated detection antibody specific for target is added subsequently and then followed by washing with PBS or TBS buffer. Avidin-Biotin-Peroxidase Complex was added and unbound conjugates were washed away with PBS or TBS buffer. HRP substrate TMB was used to visualize HRP enzymatic reaction. TMB was catalyzed by HRP to produce a blue color product that changed into yellow after adding acidic stop solution. The density of yellow is proportional to the target amount in sample captured in plate.

Target Details for GAL4

Target: GAL4 (LGALS4) (Galectin 4 (LGALS4))

Alternative Name: LGALS4

Background:

Background: Galectin-4, also known as LGALS4 or GAL4, is a protein that in humans is encoded by the LGALS4 gene. It is mapped to 19q13.2. Galectins are a family of animal lectins defined by an affinity for beta-galactoside-containing saccharides and by shared sequence elements. Galectin-4 is expressed as a 38-kD protein in the human colon adenocarcinoma T84 cell line. Galectin-4 is an S-type lectin that is strongly underexpressed in colorectal cancer, and this gene plays a role in cell adhesion. It has been found that decreased Galectin-4 expression occurs early in colorectal carcinogenesis.

Gene Full Name: galectin 4
