DESCRIPTION
Bead- and column-based separation methods rely carefully on the tempo and ease of affinity binding applications. Ligands resembling streptavidin, antibodies and lectins are used every to grab specifically-tagged targets and for the isolation of cells and biomolecules that naturally categorical the ligand binding companion.
The distinctive saccharide-binding properties of plant lectins, resembling Concanavalin A (Con A) have made them useful for the labeling and isolation of glycanpresenting cells and glycoproteins in serum and cell lysate. Lectins have furthermore been utilized in cell adhesion analysis, to affect lymphocyte activation, and to find carbohydrate-based therapeutics.
Our Con A-coated BioMag Plus microparticles current a helpful means for isolating mannosyl- and glucosyl-containing glycoproteins and polysaccharides from serum or cell lysate, or for investigating totally different lectin / glycan-mediated processes. BioMag Concanavalin A has moreover been used for CUT&RUN, a chromatin profiling protocol that has numerous key advantages over ChIP. (see References)

NOTES
• Avoid the utilization of reagents with EDTA or totally different metallic chelators, as this may reduce the effectiveness of the Binding Buffer.
• Protease Inhibitors is also used when delicate glycoproteins are isolated.
• Low glycoprotein restoration is also linked by each rising the elution incubation time previous 10 minutes, and / or by boiling particles in 200µL of
SDS-PAGE sample buffer for 5 minutes after which magnetically separating the particles from the eluate. (Bear in mind: Boiling might detach some lectins and can
moreover launch nonspecifically certain proteins.)
• Run eluate samples on an SDS-PAGE 4-20% Tris-Glycine electrophoresis gel and stain the glycoprotein bands using the GlycoGel Stain Tools
(Polysciences’ Catalog Code 24693) to visualise.
• After GlycoGel staining, stain the gel using Coomassie G250 (1mL or 2mL of 0.5% Coomassie G250 in 50% methanol and 10% acetic acid) to visualise
totally different protein bands.
• The eradicating of albumin and IgG from serum samples might improve the isolation of low focus glycoproteins. If desired, use the BioMag® ProMax
Albumin Eradicating Tools (Catalog Code BP658) and / or the BioMag® ProMax Serum IgG Eradicating Tools (Catalog Code BP659).
