Active Native Wisteria Floribunda Lectin Protein, Agarose bound

• Cat.No.: Lectin-1868W
• Product Overview: This product is the Wisteria Floribunda Lectin and and has sugar specificity against N-Acetylgalactosamine.

Specification

• Description: The binding specificity of Wisteria floribunda lectin (WFL) is not completely clear but this lectin appears to preferentially bind carbohydrate structures terminating in N-acetylgalactosamine linked α or β to the 3 or 6 position of galactose. This lectin has been used to fractionate lymphocyte populations, and although not mitogenic, elicits the production of lymphokines from murine splenocytes.
