Galactose-Specific Separopore® 4B Multi-Lectin Kit

Components: ·AIA –Artocarpus integrifolia (Jacalin) ·PNA—Arachis hypogaea agglutinin (Peanut) ·SBA –Glycine max agglutinin (Soy Bean) ·GSL I—Griffonia simplicifolia (Bandeiraea)   Various membrane receptors are glycoproteins with a variety of glycans attached as N and O linkages. In these glycans, galactose and GalNAc are very prominent. Several lectins have specificity to galactose and GalNAc, but this specificity varies and is context-driven. Glycomatix provides Gal and GalNAc-specific biotinylated lectin kits and Gal and GalNAc-specific Separopore® lectin kits, with each containing our major lectins that recognize specific GalNAc-Gal linkages The kit contains 4 affyPure™ lectins that recognize common linkages including: T-antigen disaccharide Galβ1,3GalNAc (AIA), Galβ3GalNAc (PNA), GalNAc-α1,3-Gal (SBA), α-D-galactosyl residues and terminal N-acetyl-α-D-galactosaminyl residues (GSL I). Each lectin was immobilized to the Separopore® 4B (agarose beads) matrix by coupling with
