Info
| Catalogue Number | 157955 | 
| Antigen/Gene or Protein Targets | (1-5)-a-L-arabinan | 
| Relevance | The antibody will be useful for the localization of arabinans in plant tissue and will have uses in the analyses of pectin structure. | 
| Host | Rat | 
| Immunogen | A neoglycoprotein: a heptasaccharide of (1→5)-α-l-linked-arabinosyl residues linked to bovine serum albumin. | 
| Positive Control | IgG | 
| Myeloma Used | IR983F | 
| Notes | 
                                                                    Generated using a neoglycoprotein (arabinoheptaose-BSA). Recognises a linear pentasaccharide in (1-5)-α-L-arabinans. It can recognise pectic polysaccharides in several species. It has no cross-reactivity with gum arabic but it may recognize arabinogalactan-proteins (AGPs) in some species.  In competitive inhibition ELISAs, antibody binding to (1-5)-α-L-arabinan was inhibited (50%) by 40 ng/ml (1-5)-α-L-arabinopentaose and 19 ng/ml (1-5)-α-L-arabino-hexaose.  |
