General description

Lectin is a carbohydrate-binding protein found in plant roots, rhizomes, leaves, seeds, and stems. Lectin is located in the cytoplasm as well as in the nucleus.

Application

Lectin from Wisteria floribunda has been used:

  • to study the perineuronal nets and parvalbumin nets in mouse brain by immunofluorescence
  • to evaluate the amount of N-acetylgalactosamine (GalNAc) transferred to Gaussia luciferase (GLuc) substrates by microplate assay
  • to study its binding effects on perineuronal nets

Biochem/physiol Actions

Lectin binds with high affinity to the glycans of polysaccharides, glycolipids, and glycoproteins. It is involved in plant defense.

WFA is not blood group specific, but has an affinity for N-acetyl-D-galactosamine.
