General description
Asialofetuin is a glycoprotein with three asparagine-linked triantennary complex carbohydrate chains and terminal N-acetylgalactosamine residues.[1]
Application
Asialofetuin from fetal calf serum has been used:
- to quantitate the plant Ricin toxin′s B subunit (RTB) lectin activity in β-phaseolin signal peptide (P)–proinsulin gene (INS)–RTB plants by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA)[2]
- quantitate VP7:RTB fusion protein in transformed potato tissues by ELISA[3]
- as a glycoprotein substrate to measure the receptor-binding activity of recombinant RTB and NSP490–RTB fusion proteins[4]
- to study the nature of the interaction between ferritin and the placenta[5]
Incorporation of asialofetuin (AF) in liposomes strongly enhance delivery to and endocytosis by cells displaying the AF receptor, notably hepatocytes. This provides a very efficient route for gene therapy.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Asialofetuin exhibits affinity to asialoglycoprotein receptor (ASGP-R) on hepatocytes and uses the receptor to enter the cell. This property allows asialofetuin to be used as a ligand to deliver drugs to hepatocytes and as a competitive inhibitor to ASGP-R. [1]
Preparation Note
Prepared by a modification of Spiro, R.G., J. Biol. Chem., 235, 2860 (1960).

Hi, What is the difference in Type 1 versus Type II asialofetuin
1 answer-
The difference between the Type I and Type II Asialofetuin products does not represent any kind of biochemical or functional difference. These indicate different methods of production and purification. The Type II option, product A1908, utilizes neuraminadase in an enzymatic cleavage step. The Type I, product A4781, uses a proprietary modification of that described in Spiro, R.G., J. Biol. Chem., 235, 2860 (1960).
