General description
Wheat germ lectin, also known as wheat germ agglutinin (WGA), has a molecular weight of 36 kDa. It shows affinity to 1,4-N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc) oligomers and is useful in studying surface components of C. neoformans.
Immunogen
Wheat Germ lectin (WGA)
Application
Anti-Lectin, Triticum vulgaris antibody produced in rabbit has been used in
- immunolabeling experiments
- immunohistochemistry
- immunocytochemistry
Anti-Lectin, Triticum vulgaris antibody produced in rabbit has been used in immunohistochemistry and immunocytochemistry.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Wheat germ agglutinin is a lectin isolated from Triticum vulgaris that has affinity for chitin oligosaccharides, peptidoglycans and glycolipids via sialic acid residues. It is not specific for human blood groups and has been identified as antagonists of botulinum and tetanus toxins.
Target description
Lectins are highly specific carbohydrate binding proteins useful in carbohydrate and cell membrane studies, as well as cell agglutination and typing techniques.
Physical form
Lyophilized from 0.01 M phosphate buffered saline, pH 7.2
Reconstitution
Reconstitute with 2 ml deionized water.
