Description : | Wheat germ agglutinin (WGA) (MW 36 kDa) is a dimeric, carbohydrate-free protein composed of two identical subunits. The amino acid sequence provides a figure of 21,600, based on 171 amino acids per polypeptide chain. The protein dissociates into monomers in acidic media, pK of the reaction 4. The receptor sugar for WGA is N-acetyl glucosamine (GlcNAc), GlcNacβ14GlcNAc. These structures are present in many serum and membrane glycoproteins, bacterial cell wall peptidoglycans, chitin, cartilage glycosaminogyycons and glycolipids. Native WGA also react with glycoproteins with sialic acid residue. This lectin is useful for the purification of insulin receptors, serum proteins and neuronal tracing. Inhibiting/Eluting sugars: 500 mM GlcNAc, dimer, trimmer or 100 mM acetic acid. Carbohydrate-Binding Specificity of WGA: Pentaacetylchitopentaose >Tetraacetylchitotetraose > triacetylchitotriose > Diacetylchitobiose > GlcNAc. |
