Intelectin-1 (intestinal lectin; also ITLN-1 and omentin) is a 40 kDa Ca-dependent galactofuranose-binding lectin that is not a C-type lectin. It is expressed on multiple cell types and appears to participate in insulin signaling and microbe recognition. The human ITLN-1 preproprecursor is 313 amino acids (aa) in length. It contains an 18 aa signal sequence, a 280 aa mature segment (aa 19-298), and a 15 aa C-terminal proregion that is cleaved to generate a GPI-linkage. One fibrinogen-related domain exists in the mature molecule (aa 36-209). Human ITLN-1 exists as a disulfide-linked glycosylated homotrimer. Mouse ITLN-1 is unglycosylated and a monomer. Mature human ITLN-1 is 82% aa identical to mouse ITLN-1. Human ITLN-1 shows one alternate start site at Met72, and a splice form that contains a 32 aa substitution for aa 264-313.

Scientific Data Images for Human Intelectin‑1/Omentin Antibody
Intelectin‑1/Omentin in Mouse Intestine.
Intelectin-1/Omentin was detected in immersion fixed frozen sections of mouse intestine using 10 µg/mL Sheep Anti-Human Intelectin-1/Omentin Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF4254) overnight at 4 °C. Tissue was stained with the NorthernLights™ 557-conjugated Anti-Sheep IgG Secondary Antibody (red; NL010) and counterstained with DAPI (blue).

Intelectin‑1/Omentin in U937 Human Cell Line.
Intelectin-1/Omentin was detected in immersion fixed U937 human histiocytic lymphoma cell line using Sheep Anti-Human Intelectin-1/Omentin Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF4254) at 5 µg/mL for 3 hours at room temperature. Cells were stained using the NorthernLights™ 557-conjugated Anti-Sheep IgG Secondary Antibody (red; NL010) and counterstained with DAPI (blue). Specific staining was localized to cytoplasm.

SPINK4 and ITLN1 mark early goblet cells. a Volcano plot showing fold change and P value of genes differentially expressed in the ‘goblet-type’ cell cluster as compared to all other cell clusters (see Fig. 3). Points coloured red indicate genes significant at 5% permutation test. Selected highly significant genes are labelled. b Bar chart showing the percentage of cells in the ‘goblet-type’ cell cluster (n = 98) expressing MUC2, ITLN1 or SPINK4 alone or in different combinations (thresholds set at the tenth centile to include 90% of cells in which at least one transcript was detected from each gene). c Triple immunofluorescence staining images of MUC2 (red), ITLN1 (white) and SPINK4 (green) in normal colon from a resection specimen (blue stain is DAPI).

Intelectin‑1/Omentin was detected in immersion fixed sections of ileum ALI using Sheep Anti-Human Intelectin‑1/Omentin Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF4254) at 0.5 µg/mL overnight at 4 °C. Tissue was stained using the NorthernLights™ 557-conjugated Anti-Sheep IgG Secondary Antibody (red; Catalog # NL010) and counterstained with DAPI (blue). Specific staining was localized to mucus granules in goblet cells. View our protocol for Fluorescent ICC Staining of Non-adherent Cells.
