Lectins are a complex class of proteins with one or more non-catalytic domains. It is highly specifically recognized glycans and has the ability to agglutinate cells. Natural Lectins are widely found in Plants, Animals, and Fungi. Recombinant lectins are based on conventional recombinant DNA techniques for the cloning and production of pure and sequence-defined lectins. CD BioGlyco provides services related to recombinant production to help clients gain insight into the complex biological mechanisms of interaction.
Currently, hundreds of lectins have been identified in detail, and recombinant lectins are being developed as valuable biosynthetic tools. Combined with multi-biological platforms, lectins are produced by recombinant technology. Optimize lectin production in heterologous hosts, and achieve highly efficient heterologous protein production. This greatly improves the application of lectins in biotechnology. For the production of recombinant lectins in heterologous organisms, we provide corresponding Recombinant Lectin Production in Different Expression Systems. Our lab mainly provides the four expression systems:
The service provides higher levels of lectins with higher purity and defined amino acid sequences so that more control over the final properties will be achieved. Our team of experienced scientists helps you choose the most suitable protein expression system for your specific application, depending on the properties of the protein itself.
Furthermore, we provide the following several glycan-binding lectin production services. These lectins show both specificity and high affinity for a series of glycan epitopes displaying terminal galactose and mannose (including high mannose structures).
Galactose lectins (Galectin) are a class of animal lectins that specifically bind beta-galactose residues. We offer the production of several galactose-binding lectins with different specificities.
Mannose-binding lectin (MBL) belongs to the C-type lectin family and plays a defensive role in the body. We offer α-MBL and α-Mannose, Lewis a (Lea) & Lewis x (Lex)-Binding lectin production services.
Sialic acid-binding lectins (SABLs) have binding properties to N-acetyl groups or N-glycidyl carbohydrates. We provide high-purity α2-3-Linked and α-Linked SABL production services.
Fucose-binding lectin has a high affinity for fucosyl and galactosyl. It plays an important role as a cancer biomarker. We offer high specificity α-linked fucose-binding lectin production services.
CD BioGlyco is a leading biology company in the world, providing clients with comprehensive Lectin Production Services. Our professional technical team is available 24 hours online to help clients complete the project quickly.
