Carbohydrates and Binding Proteins
The functionality of any molecule relies on its ability to interact with surrounding molecules. Carbohydrates play critical roles in many of these interactions and have influence on cell recognition, signaling, proliferation, and migration. Lectins are a class of proteins that recognize and bind to various monosaccharide epitopes. Our collection of lectin products includes those designed to study C-type lectins, galectins, and selectins. We also offer products that recognize other oligosaccharide epitopes such as hyaluronan and heparin.
