Anti-Pectic polysaccharide (Homogalacturonan) [LM20] Antibody
![Anti-Pectic polysaccharide (Homogalacturonan) [LM20] Antibody, 5mL (supernatant)](https://www.kerafast.com/MediaStorage/Product/Images/Large/1585_2001202001265315840.jpg "Anti-Pectic polysaccharide (Homogalacturonan) [LM20] Antibody")
This rat IgM monoclonal antibody was generated against polysaccharide and recognizes land plants pectic polysaccharide, homogalacturonan.
Highlights:
- Reacts with land plants pectic polysaccharide, homogalacturonan
- No known cross-reactivity with other polymers
- Binds to methyl esterified homogalacturonan
- Does not bind to un-esterified homogalacturonan
- Suitable for Immunofluorescence and ELISA applications
The antibody recognizes the homogalacturonan domain of pectic polysaccharides. It has no known cross-reactivity with other polymers. It can recognize pectic polysaccharides in several species. The antibody requires methyl-esters for recognition of homogalacturonan and does not bind to un-esterified homogalacturonan. LM20 binding is more effectively lost by high pH treatments that remove HG methyl esters. Homogalacturonan is a pectic polysaccharide made up of α-1,4 linked galacturonic acid residues. Pectin is made up of a complex set of polysaccharides that are found in most primary cell walls and are particularly abundant in the non-woody parts of terrestrial plants. Pectin is a major component of the middle lamella, where it helps to bind cells together, but is also found in primary cell walls.
