General description
Lectins are highly specific carbohydrate binding proteins
useful in carbohydrate and cell membrane studies, as well as cell agglutination
and typing techniques.
The antibody may be used for studies of the vascular
structures. It reacts specifically with UEA-I bound to human endothelial cells
of normal and neoplastic blood and lymphatic vessels. Its uniform reaction with
vessels enables differentation between vessels and artificial slits in the
tissue.
Immunogen
Ulex europaeus from gorse seeds..
Application
Anti-Lectin, Ulex europaeus-I antibody produced
in rabbit has been used in double immunostaining of muscle capillary sections.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Lectin isolated from Ulex europaeus I is
specific for α-L-fucose-containing glycocompounds. Due to this specificity it
serves as a marker for vascular endothelial cells and tumors derived from them.
