BPL is a lectin from Bauhinia purpurea that binds GalNAc-containing O-glycans, conjugated to Cy3 for orange-red fluorescence detection. It is used in glycan profiling, cell labeling, and histochemistry to study glycoprotein expression and carbohydrate-mediated cell interactions. The Cy3 tag enables high-resolution imaging and supports multiplexed fluorescence workflows.
Why Researchers Choose It
- Binds GalNAc-containing O-glycans
- Cy3 tag enables orange-red fluorescence detection
- Used in glycan profiling and histochemistry
- Supports high-resolution and multiplexed imaging workflows
