Lectin de Triticum vulgaris (blé), peroxidase conjugué, poudre lyophilisée

Non disponible en dehors du Royaume-Uni et de l'Irlande

Application

Detects glycoproteins containing β(1→4)-N-acetyl-D-glucosamine when used with appropriate peroxidase substrate

General Western Blot Protocol: Glycoprotein sample size: 500ng Lectin Concentration: 0.1ug/mlLoad samples at 500 ng of glycoprotein per lane Run 4-20% Bis-Tris SDS page gel Transfer gel to a PVDF membrane Block membrane for 1 hr at RT with RIPA buffer (R0278 Sigma) Incubate HRP lectin at 0.1ug/ml with RIPA buffer for 2 hours at RT Wash membrane 5 x 5 minutes with 25ml RIPA buffer Detect using chemiluminescent substrate (CPS1-120)

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.

Packaging

1 mg in glass bottle

Package size based on protein content.

2 mg in serum bottle

Physical form

Contains citrate buffer

Preparation Note

Prepared from peroxidase type VI (P8375) using a modification of the method of O′Sullivan, which favors low molecular weight conjugates. Repurified after conjugation by affinity chromatography.

Conjugates are prepared from affinity purified lectin.

Unit Definition
