Human Polyomavirus 9 VP1 Lectin (HpyL)

Currency:

Product code: LEC512

Sugar specificity: N-Acetylneuraminic acid (Neu5Ac)

Sugar specificity: N-Acetylneuraminic acid (Neu5Ac)

Additional specificity details: Neu5Gcα2-3Galβ1-4GlcNAc

Structure: Decameric lectin assembled as a dimer of pentamers, with 29.4 kDa monomers

The preference for Neu5Gc over Neu5Ac is explained by the architecture of the sialic acid binding site in HPyL, which allows specific recognition of the extra Neu5Gc hydroxyl group via hydrogen bonds to side chains.

Laboratory reagent for research and development only. Not for human or animal use.
