Product overview
Abcam’s knockout cell pellets give you access to native proteins, without the need to culture cells. Our knockout cell pellets are prepared from our single-gene knockout cell lines and provide an additional offering to our cell lysates.
Cells are snap-frozen to provide high quality pellets that are suitable for extraction with alternative lysis buffers or for preparation of lysates from subcellular fractions. Our knockout cell pellets are suitable for a variety of applications, including PCR, gene expression profiling and DNA library preparation. -

Function
Binds galactosides. Has high affinity for the Forssman pentasaccharide. May play a role in thymocyte-epithelial interactions relevant to the biology of the thymus. Inhibits cell proliferation. It is a ligand for HAVCR2/TIM3. Induces T-helper type 1 lymphocyte (Th1) death. Isoform Short acts as an eosinophil chemoattractant. -
Tissue specificity
Peripheral blood leukocytes and lymphatic tissues. Overexpressed in Hodgkin disease tissue. -
Sequence similarities
Contains 2 galectin domains. -
Domain
Contains two homologous but distinct carbohydrate-binding domains. -
Cellular localization
Cytoplasm. Secreted. May also be secreted by a non-classical secretory pathway. - Information by UniProt

Western blot - Human Lgals9 (galectin 9/Gal-9) knockout A549 cell pellet (ab278916)
Lane 1: Wild-type A549 cell lysate (20 µg)
Lane 2: LGALS9 knockout A549 cell lysate (20 µg)
Lane 3: U-937 cell lysate (20 µg)
Lanes 1-4: Merged signal (red and green). Green - ab227046 observed at 34-39 kDa. Red - loading control ab8245 observed at 36 kDa.
ab227046 Anti-galectin 9/Gal-9 antibody [EPR22214] was shown to specifically react with galectin 9/Gal-9 in wild-type A549 cells. Loss of signal was observed when knockout cell line ab266923 (knockout cell lysate ab256976) was used. Wild-type and galectin 9/Gal-9 knockout samples were subjected to SDS-PAGE.. ab227046 and Anti-GAPDH antibody [6C5] - Loading Control (ab8245) were incubated overnight at 4°C at 1 in 500 dilution and 1 in 20000 dilution respectively. Blots were developed with Goat anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (IRDye® 800CW) preadsorbed (ab216773) and Goat anti-Mouse IgG H&L (IRDye® 680RD) preadsorbed (ab216776) secondary antibodies at 1 in 20000 dilution for 1 hour at room temperature before imaging.
