Succinylated Wheat Germ Agglutinin (WGA), Agarose bound, 2 ml. Agarose-bound, succinylated WGA is prepared using Vector Laboratories affinity-purified lectins. This derivative has been reported to have properties distinct from the native lectin. Evidence suggests that this product does not bind to sialic acid residues, unlike the native form, but retains its specificity toward N-acetylglucosamine. Using conjugates of the native lectin and the succinylated form can provide a system to distinguish between sialylated glycoconjugates and those containing only N-acetylglucosamine structures. Features: Bead diameter from 45–165 microns, Matrix is stable in solutions at pH 3–11 and many organic solvents, Immobilized lectins are prepared using affinity purified lectins. Covalent attachment preserves lectin activity, minimizing conformational changes. Product is a 1:1 suspension in buffer. Inhibiting/Eluting Sugar: Chitin Hydrolysate or 500 mM N-acetylglucosamine.
