Active Native Datura Stramonium Lectin Protein

• Cat.No.: Lectin-1768D
• Product Overview: This product is the unconjugated Datura Stramonium Lectin and has sugar specificity to [GlcNAc]1-3, N-Acetylglucosamine.

Specification

• Species: Datura stramonium
• Source: Datura stramonium
• Tag: Non
• Description: DSL contains two chains of 40 kDa and 46 kDa joined by disulfide bonds. This lectin is free of a reported 32 kDa contaminant protein. The carbohydrate binding site recognizes (β-1,4) linked N-acetylglucosamine oligomers, preferring chitobiose or chitotriose over a single N-acetylglucosamine residue. This lectin binds well in the acidic pH range but its affinity decreases above pH 8.0.
• Bio-activity: Inhibiting/Eluting Sugar: Chitin Hydrolysate
• Molecular Mass: 86 Kda
• Applications: Glycobiology, Mitogenic Stimulation
• Usage: Although many buffers can be employed for reconstituting and diluting this lectin, 10 mM HEPES buffered saline, pH 8.5, 0.1 mM Ca2+ is recommended. For preserving solutions stored at 4 centigrade, 0.08% sodium azide can be used. Aggregation may occur with time if stored at concentrations greater than 2 mg/ml.
• Storage: Refrigerate; aliquots of reconstituted lectin can be stored frozen. or preserved with 0.08% sodium azide and stored at 4 centigrade
