Vector Laboratories Lotus Tetragonolobus Lectin (LTL) Fluorescein-labeled 2 mg

Supplier: Vector Laboratories FL13212

Lotus tetragonolobus lectin (LTL) encompasses a family of closely related glycoproteins with 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 (UEL I), the binding affinities and some specificities for oligosaccharides are significantly different between these fucose-specific lectins. This fluorescein-labeled LTL features a ratio of fluorophores to lectin protein that provides optimal staining (excitation 495 nm, emission 515 nm). Supplied as a solution essentially free of unconjugated fluorophores, it is preserved with sodium azide. The recommended inhibiting/eluting sugar is 50-100 mM L-fucose.
