Lectin from Triticum vulgaris (wheat), biotin conjugate, lyophilized powder

Descriptions

Application

Lectin from Triticum vulgaris (wheat) has been used:in lectin binding assay of samples from intrauterine stages of filarial parasitesin the histological studies of mice myocytesfor 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 is not blood group specific but has an affinity for N-acetyl-β-D-glucosaminyl residues and N-acetyl-β-D-glucosamine oligomers. WGA contains no protein-bound carbohydrate.

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.
