Immunogen: Purified tobacco class I, basic ß-1,3-glucanase. Purified GLU I consists of a mixture of closely related polypeptides encoded by a family of GLU I genes comprising GLA B5APL3 derived from the sylvestris ancestor of tobacco, GLB P27666 derived from the tomentosiformis ancestor of tobacco and homeologous recombinants (Sperisen et al., 1991). Mature GLU I is processed from a pre-pro-polypeptide (Shinshi et al., 1988).
Host: Rabbit
Clonality: Polyclonal
Purity: Total IgG in PBS pH 7.4. (without Ca++).
Format: Lyophilized
Quantity: 2 mg
Reconstitution: For reconstitution add 100 µl of sterile water
Storage: Store lyophilized/reconstituted at -20°C; once reconstituted make aliquots to avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. Please remember to spin the tubes briefly prior to opening them to avoid any losses that might occur from material adhering to the cap or sides of the tube.
Tested applications: Immunolocalization (IL), Western blot (WB)
Pathogenesis-related (PR) proteins, are induced in response to the infection of plants with microbial pathogens. Combinations of glucanase I and chitinase I are potent inhibitors of fungal growth in vitro however precise mechanism of that is still not known. Glucanase I and chitinase I contribute to defense against fungal infection and are currently used as markers for innate immunity, and in particular the ethylene/jasmonate signalling pathway in pathogenesis. Alternative names of the protein: basic beta-1,3-glucanase
