Bovine Galectin-1
Soluble beta-galactoside binding protein (galectin) originally from Bos taurus. Believed to expressed both intracellularly and extracellularly, where they serve to binding various types of beta-galactosides and initialize signal cascades. Believed to be a dimer in its active form, as is true with most mammalian galectins.
UMaryland 2014 is interested in utilizing this part to investigate whether E. coli can recognize and bind to surface carbohydrates on a marine pathogen. Other uses of this part lie in the recognition of various carbohydrate ligands and potential activation of signal transduction pathways.
