Vector Laboratories Sambucus Nigra Lectin (SNL, SNA, EBL) Agarose Bound 2ml
Sambucus nigra lectin (SNL) is isolated from elderberry bark and binds preferentially to sialic acid attached to terminal galactose in a-2,6 and to a lesser degree, a-2,3 linkage. Also called SNA (Sambucus nigra agglutinin) and EBL (elderberry lectin), SNL can inhibit cell-free protein synthesis. This agarose-bound SNL is prepared using affinity-purified lectin and heat stable, cross-linked 4% agarose beads. The attachment of the lectin through a hydrophilic spacer arm to the beads is carefully controlled to preserve the activity of and minimize conformational changes to the bound lectins. The recommended inhibiting/eluting sugar is 500 mM lactose in buffered saline followed by 500 mM lactose in acetic acid.
Vector Laboratories Vicia Villosa Lectin (VVL, VVA) Biotinylated 2 mg
Vicia villosa lectin (VVL, VVA) preferentially binds 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). This lectin may require specific amino acid sequences at the receptor site of glycosylation, and the disaccharide galactosyl (α-1,3) N-acetylgalactosamine is also a potent inhibitor. This conjugate features a ratio of biotin to lectin protein that provides optimal avidin/streptavidin and lectin binding activity. Supplied essentially free of unconjugated biotins, it is preserved with sodium azide.

Vector Laboratories Griffonia (Bandeiraea) Simplicifolia Lectin I (GSL I, BSL I), Unconjugated 5 mg
Griffonia simplicifolia lectin I (GSL I) is a family of glycoproteins with molecular weights of approximately 114 kDa. Two subunits ("A" and "B") have slightly different molecular weights and combine to form tetrameric structures, resulting in five isolectins. The "A"-rich lectin preferentially agglutinates blood group A erythrocytes and appears to be specific for α-N-acetylgalactosamine residues, while the "B"-rich lectin preferentially agglutinates blood group B cells and is specific for α-galactose residues.
Sigma Aldrich Fine Chemicals Biosciences Lectin from Triticum vulga2MG
Lectins are carbohydrate-binding proteins. They are omnipresent and usually found in fungi plants and animals. The secondary structure of this protein is rich in -strands and possesses carbohydrate binding sites on the surface.
Sigma Aldrich Fine Chemicals Biosciences Lectin from Phaseolus vulg50MG
Phytohaemagglutinin (PHA or phytohemagglutinin) is a lectin found in plants (esp. in legumes). It is obtained from Phaseolus vulgaris (red kidney beans) and acts as a mitogen in human leucocyte culture.
