Overview
This lectin is a dimeric glycoprotein composed of two subunits of nearly identical size with each subunit having disulfide-linked chains and a binding site for α- or β-linked N-acetylglucosamine residues. Unlike other N-acetylglucosamine specific lectins, increasing the number of N-acetylglucosamine residues beyond two does not improve affinity. GSL II has been reported to be unique in its ability to recognize exclusively α- or β-linked N-acetylglucosamine residues on the nonreducing terminal of oligosaccharides.
Inhibiting/Eluting Sugar: Chitin Hydrolysate or 200 mM N-acetylglucosamine

Usage Summary
Although many buffers can be employed for reconstituting this lectin, we recommend 10 mM HEPES buffered saline, 0.1 mM CaCl₂, pH 8.5. For preserving solutions stored at 4 ºC, 0.08% sodium azide can be used. DO NOT VORTEX.
