Cat.No.
Lectin-1753A
Species
Aleuria aurantia
Product Name
Native Aleuria Aurantia Lectin Protein, Fluorescein labeled
Product Overview
This product is the Fluorescein labeled Aleuria Aurantia Lectin and has sugar specificity against Fucose, Arabinose. The excitation maximum is at 495 nm and the emission maximum is at 515 nm.
Description
This lectin is a dimer of two identical subunits of about 36 kDa each. Unlike Ulex europaeus and Lotus tetragonolobus lectins which prefer (α -1,2) linked fucose residues, Aleuria aurantia lectin binds preferentially to fucose linked (α -1,6) to N-acetylglucosamine or to fucose linked (α -1,3) to N-acetyllactosamine related structures. AAL also reversibly binds fucose attached to nucleic acids.
