General description
Lectin from Red Kidney Bean has long been used in a wide variety of applications that require carbohydrate binding including but not limited to T-cell proliferation, leucoagglutination, glycoconjugate capture and more. The native form of lectin from Red Kidney Bean is composed of 2 isolectins (PHA-L and PHA-E) which combine in heterotetromeric combinations that elicit a variety of properties. This recombinant form is strictly the leucoagglutinin (PHA-L) isolectin only, so the erythroagglutinin (PHA-E) isolectin is absent in this product. This allows for more selective performance because there is no chance of PHA-E contamination as seen in native source products.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Kidney bean lectin has a history of being used as a phytohemagglutinin because of its ability to agglutinate blood cells. This isolectin (PHA-L) specficially is the Leucoagglutinin type and can be used for leucoagglutination and as a mitogen. As a lectin, it is known to have some selectivity for binding of β1-6 branched N-glycans.
