Artocarpus integrifolia Lectin (AIA) - HRP (Horseradish Peroxidase)
Price: Regular price $126.00
Product Description
Jacalin lectin (AIA) is purified by affinity chromatography and is tetrameric two-chain structure consisting of four identical protomers with an isoelectric point of pH 7.8. The lectin has specificity for blood group types O (+SA) and T. Jacalin is considered a galactose-specific lectin and elutes with galactose or melibiose. A post-translational proteolytic modification of Jacalin gives the lectin a novel carbohydrate-binding site involving the N terminus of the α-chain. The protein’s structure explains it’s carbohydrate-binding specificity of T-antigen disaccharide Galβ1,3GalNAc. Potent inhibitors of jacalin include D-galactose, β-Met-Gal and 2-deoxy-α-D-galactose.Horseradish peroxidase (HRP) is a 40 kDa protein that catalyzes the oxidation of substrates by hydrogen peroxide, resulting in a colored or fluorescent product or release of light as a byproduct of the reaction. It is most commonly used for blotting, immunoassays and immunohistochemistry methods. Artocarpus integrifolia (Jacalin) Lectin (AIA) is conjugated to HRP at an appropriate ratio to provide optimal staining characteristics.
