Agarose bound Con A is prepared using our affinity-purified lectins. Con A recognizes α-linked mannose present as part of a core oligosaccharide in many serum and membrane glycoproteins. At neutral and alkaline pH, Con A exists as a tetramer of four identical subunits; below pH 5.6, Con A dissociates into active dimers of 52 kDa. Acetylation, succinylation, or other derivatizations can also produce stable forms with dimeric structures. (See succinylated Con A). Nicks in the sequence are often present in the purest preparations due to hydrolytic damage within the seeds.
Features:
Bead diameter ranges in size from 45-165 microns
Matrix is stable in solutions at pH 3-11 as well as many organic solvents
Immobilized lectins are prepared using affinity purified lectins
Covalent attachment preserves lectin activity and minimizes conformational changes that might result in nonspecific or hydrophobic interactions
Hydrophilic spacer arm is inserted between the lectin and the matrix
Conjugated proteins are not leached off the beads by Tris or other routinely used buffers
No residual charges present after conjugation. This minimizes non-specific binding to the matrix
Product supplied as a 1:1 suspension in buffer
Technische Daten und Beschreibung
Unit Size
10 ml
Applications
Glycobiology, Affinity Chromatography
Recommended Storage
2-8 °C DO NOT FREEZE
Solution
10 mM HEPES, pH 7.5, 0.15 M NaCl, 0.1 mM CaCl2, 0.01 mM MnCl2, 20 mM glucose, 0.08% sodium azide
Recommended Usage
Wash gel thoroughly with buffer before use to remove sugar added to stabilize the lectin. Recommended product for eluting glycoconjugates bound to this agarose-lectin: Glycoprotein Eluting Solution, Cat. No. ES-1100. Alternatively, a 0.2 M α-methyl mannoside/0.2 M α-methyl glucoside mixture can be used. After use, wash the gel with several column volumes of buffered saline, then resuspend gel in buffered saline containing 0.08% sodium azide for storage.
