pp. 111-115
Background: Regardless of the broad explore in the territory of glycobiology concerning structure and capacity of glycans, lectins and glycosylation forms, numerous viewpoints are still left unexplored. Aim: In this study, we analyzed the effect of shuttle vector on the secretion of human galectin recombinant protein. Methods: The galectin was expressed in E. coli BL21 by growing the bacterial culture in SOC medium and purified by nickel-based affinity chromatography due to its His-tag. Results: After cell lysis the protein was identified as a single 29 KDa band by 12% SDS-PAGE. Conclusion: Characterization studies clearly revealed that the purified protein was indeed galectin 3.
