Used for the purification of glycoproteins containing (D-N-acetylglucosamine)2 or N-acetylneuraminic acid.
Ações bioquímicas/fisiológicas
WGA is not blood group specific but has an affinity for N-acetyl-β-D-glucosaminyl residues and N-acetyl-β-D-glucosamine oligomers. WGA contains no protein-bound carbohydrate.
forma física
Suspension in 0.9% NaCl containing 15 mM Sodium azide.
Nota de preparo
Conjugates are prepared from affinity purified lectin.
There is controversy with respect to molecular characteristics of insulin analogues. We report a series of experiments forming a comprehensive characterisation of the long acting insulin analogues, glargine and detemir, in comparison with human insulin, IGF-1, and the super-mitogenic insulin

The normal cellular prion protein (PrP) is a glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchored cell surface glycoprotein. However, in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma cell lines, such as BxPC-3, PrP exists as a pro-PrP retaining its glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) peptide signaling sequence. Here, we report the identification

In Alzheimer's disease (AD), the reduction in acetylcholinesterase (AChE) enzymatic activity is not paralleled with changes in its protein levels, suggesting the presence of a considerable enzymatically inactive pool in the brain. In the present study, we validated previous findings

Chromaffin-granule membranes were separated into insoluble and soluble fractions after extraction with lithium di-iodosalicylate (LDIS). These fractions were characterized by one- and two-dimensional gel electrophoresis, and glycoproteins were detected after electroblotting with peroxidase-labelled concanavalin A and wheat-germ agglutinin (WGA). The
Mutations in CLN3 lead to photoreceptor cell loss in CLN3 disease, a lysosomal storage disorder characterized by childhood-onset vision loss, neurological impairment, and premature death. However, how CLN3 mutations cause photoreceptor cell death is not known. Here, we show that
