LGALS3

(redirected from Laminin-binding protein)

LGALS3

A gene on chromosome 14q22.3 that encodes a galectin family-type carbohydrate-binding protein, which can self-associate through the N-terminal domain, bind to multivalent saccharide ligands and localise to the extracellular matrix, cytoplasm and nucleus. The LGALS3 protein product plays a role in various cell functions including apoptosis, innate
immunity, cell adhesion and T-cell regulation.

Rabbit monoclonal antibodies against protein S100-A4 (S100A4) (ab124805) and laminin-binding protein (RPSA) (ab133645) were purchased from Abeam (Cambridge, UK).

Equivalent amounts of protein samples (20 [micro]g/lane) were resolved using 10% or 12% SDS-PAGE to visualise laminin-binding protein (RPSA), E-cadherin, total and phospho-ERK1/2 (p-ERK1/2), as well as total and phospho-NF-[kappa]B p65 (p-NF-[kappa]B p65).

Laminin-binding protein (RPSA) which plays a role in the cell adhesion to basement membrane was similarly downregulated.
