Usage Summary Although many buffers can be employed for reconstituting this lectin, we recommend 10 mM HEPES buffered saline, pH 8.5, 0.1 mM CaCl2. For preserving solutions stored at 4 ºC, 0.08% sodium azide can be used. | |
Applications Glycobiology | |
Conjugate Unconjugated |
Vicia Villosa Lectin (VVL, VVA), Unconjugated
VVL recognizes preferentially α- or β-linked terminal N-acetylgalactosamine, especially a single α-N-acetylgalactosamine residue linked to serine or threonine in a polypeptide (the Tn antigen). Evidence suggests that this lectin also may require specific amino acid sequences at the receptor site of glycosylation. The disaccharide galactosyl (α-1,3) N-acetylgalactosamine is also a potent inhibitor of this lectin.

Technical Information This lectin is a family of tetrameric glycoproteins consisting of combinations of A and B subunits similar in structure to PHA and GSL I. The dominant isolectins in our preparations appear to be B subunit-rich. Inhibiting/Eluting Sugar: 200 mM N-acetylgalactosamine |
