Lotus Tetragonolobus Lectin (LTL), Fluorescein (FL-1321-2)

[text-backorder]

Description

Lotus tetragonolobus lectin is a family of closely related glycoproteins that appear to have similar specificities toward α-linked L-fucose containing oligosaccharides. Although many of the binding properties of Lotus lectin are similar to those of Ulex europaeus lectin I, the binding affinities and some specificities for oligosaccharides are significantly different between these fucose-specific lectins.

Fluorescein labeled Lotus tetragonolobus lectin has an appropriate number of fluorochromes bound to provide the optimum staining characteristics for this lectin. This conjugate is supplied essentially free of unconjugated fluorochromes.

  • Excitation maximum: 495 nm
