**Background of Recombinant Lgals4 Protein**
Lgals4. also known as galectin-4. is a member of the galectin family of β-galactoside-binding proteins characterized by their affinity for glycans on cell surfaces or extracellular matrices. It is a tandem-repeat-type galectin, featuring two distinct carbohydrate-recognition domains (CRDs) connected by a linker peptide, enabling multivalent interactions with glycoconjugates. Primarily expressed in gastrointestinal epithelial cells, galectin-4 plays roles in cell adhesion, immune regulation, and maintenance of mucosal barrier integrity.
Recombinant Lgals4 is engineered through genetic cloning and expression in host systems (e.g., *E. coli* or mammalian cells*), allowing controlled production for functional studies. Unlike full-length native galectin-4. recombinant forms often include tags (e.g., His-tags) for purification and detection. Studies highlight its dual role in inflammation and cancer: it promotes tumor progression in colorectal cancer by stabilizing oncogenic signaling proteins, yet exhibits anti-inflammatory effects by modulating immune cell activity.
Galectin-4’s ability to cross-link cell surface glycoproteins contributes to its involvement in cell-matrix interactions and signal transduction. However, its context-dependent roles—acting as a tumor suppressor or promoter—remain under investigation. Recombinant Lgals4 is widely used to dissect glycan-mediated processes, develop diagnostic biomarkers, or explore therapeutic strategies targeting galectin-glycan interactions in diseases like inflammatory bowel disease or metastatic cancers. Challenges include understanding its tissue-specific functions and resolving structural nuances influencing ligand binding.
