Catalog #A0980-15
Lectins form precipitates with glycoconjugates and are useful for identifying or separating oligosaccharides with identical sugar compositions such as galactose, mannose or glucose.
Carbohydrate SpecificityGalactose (b 1,3) N-Acetylgalactosamine
Inhibitory Carbohydrateb-D-Galactose (nominally). The lectin recognizes the structure Gal-GalNAc-serine (or threonine).
Activity5-10ug/ml will agglutinate type A or B cells. 2ug/ml will agglutinate type O cells. Less than 0.5ug/ml will agglutinate neuraminidase treated erythrocytes.
Storage and StabilityMay be stored at 4°C for short-term only. Aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing. Store at -20°C. Aliquots are stable for at least 6 months at -20°C.
