Erythrina cristagalli (Coral tree) Lectin (ECL/ECA) - Coated Microplates
Price: Regular price $188.80
Product Description
Erythrina cristagalli lectin or agglutinin (ECL/ECA) is affinity purified lectin consists of two subunits with molecular weights of 28,000 and 26,000. ECL binds to carbohydrate structure in membrane and serum glycoproteins of mammalian cells. The shape of the lectin binding domains may resemble cavity type with Galβ1->4GlcNAc as the core binding site with additional one to four sugar subsites and is most complementary to a linear trisaccharide. Some Galβ1-related oligosaccharides are the major structures for lectin binding. Lectin binding activity can be abolition through salic acid substitution. This allows for specificity to fractionate and isolate mammalian glycoproteins. Affinity purified Erythrina cristagalli (Coral tree) Lectin (ECL/ECA) is immobilized on microplates for ELISA assays. The unoccupied, charged groups are blocked by BSA to minimize non-specific interactions and reduce background.
