Description générale

Lectins are proteins of plant origin, which have the ability to bind to certain neuronal surface glycoproteins and glycolipids. This ability of theirs helps them to be used as neuroanatomical tracers, as they are taken and transported in a retrograde or anterograde fashion.

Application

Lectin from Phytolacca americana (pokeweed) is used for proliferation Assay. (Cellular proliferative responses were measured by the incorporation of 3H thymidine in newly synthesized DNA, using a conventional assay).

Actions biochimiques/physiologiques

Lectins are carbohydrate-binding proteins and are highly specific for sugar moieties. Pokeweed lectin (PL) is a lectin specific for N-acetylglucosamine-containing saccharides that stimulate peripheral lymphocytes to undergo mitosis by binding to their cell surfaces. Four types of lectins are isolated from the roots of pokeweed (Phytolacca americana). They contain homologous domains but have different molecular sizes and biological properties.
Le PWM (mitogène de la phytolaque) est extrait des racines de phytolaque. Cette protéine a des propriétés mitogènes, d′hémagglutination et d′agglutination des leucocytes. Le PWM n′est pas spécifique à un groupe sanguin, mais il présente une affinité pour les oligomères du type N-acétyl-β-D-glucosamine.

Qualité

Partially purified TCA precipitate.
Essentially salt-free.

Remarque sur l'analyse

L′activité mitogène a été déterminée par incorporation de BrdU dans les cellules HeLa en culture.
