| Catalogue Number | 157928 |
| Antigen/Gene or Protein Targets | Feruloylated-(1-4)-β-D-Galactan |
| Relevance | LM9 is a useful antibody probe for the analysis of phenolic substitution of cell wall pectic polymers and of cell wall structure in the Amaranthaceae including sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L.) and spinach (Spinacia oleracea L.). |
| Host | Rat |
| Positive Control | IgM |
| Notes |
The antibody recognises a specific epitope of a feruloylated-(1-4)-b-D-galactan that is a structural feature of the pectic polymers of plant species of the Amaranthaceae/Chenopodiaceae. It has no known cross-reactivity with other polymers. In competitive inhibition ELISAs, antibody binding to sugar beet pectin was inhibited (50%) by 15 µg/ml O-[6-O-(trans-feruloyl)-b-d-galactopyranosyl]-(1→4)-d-galactopyranose. |
