Beschreibung

General description

Wheat germ lectin (WGA) from Triticum vulgaris exists as a homodimer and has multiple N-acetyl glucosamine (GlcNAc) binding sites. It is resistant to protein denaturation agents and is used for the detection of O-GlcNAc proteins. WGA binding to N-glycolylneuraminic acid (Neu5Ac) may modulate pro-inflammatory immune response.

Application

Lectin from Triticum vulgaris (wheat) has been used:

• in lectin binding assay of samples from intrauterine stages of filarial parasites
• in the histological studies of mice myocytes
• for the generation bead-biotin-WGA complex with Dynabeads^® M-280 Streptavidin magnetic beads for lectin magnetic separation of Toxoplasma gondii oocytes from water samples

Biochem/physiol Actions

WGA ist nicht Blutgruppen-spezifisch, hat aber eine Affinität zu N-Acetyl-β-D-Glucosaminylresten und N-Acetyl-β-D-Glucosamin-Oligomeren. WGA enthält keine proteingebundenen Kohlenhydrate.
