Activity test

Galectin 9 (GAL9) is a member of the β-galactoside–binding galectin family. Galectin-9 is found outside of cells and may be exported by non-classical pathways. Galectin 9 exhibits a variety of biological activities, the majority of which have focused on its immunomodulatory role toward lymphocytes, were it shows specific interactions with TIM-3, and can negatively regulate Th1 type immunity. It also can agglutinate red blood.In this case, we chose rabbit erythrocyte (RaE) to assay its ability of agglutination. A general procedure for hemagglutination assay (or haemagglutination assay; HA) is as follows, two-fold dilute the recombinant Mu GAL9 with 0.9% sodium chloride injection, add 50μL a serial dilution of GAL9 to each well of a U or V-bottom shaped 96-well microtiter plate. The final well serves as a negative control with no GAL9, replace with 50μL 0.9% sodium chloride injection. Then add 50μL 1% rabbit erythrocyte to each well and mixed gently. The plate is incubated for 3 hours at room temperature. The results are shown in Figure 1. It was obvious that the minimal effective concentration of GAL9 is 6.25 μg/mL.

Usage
Reconstitute in 10mM PBS (pH7.4) to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/mL. Do not vortex.
Storage
Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles. Store at 2-8°C for one month. Aliquot and store at -80°C for 12 months.
Stability
The thermal stability is described by the loss rate. The loss rate was determined by accelerated thermal degradation test, that is, incubate the protein at 37°C for 48h, and no obvious degradation and precipitation were observed. The loss rate is less than 5% within the expiration date under appropriate storage condition.
