AS18 4211-1ml Anti-Arabinogalactan-protein, AGP (monoclonal, clone LM2)

The plant cell wall surrounds the plant cell as a complex network of polysaccharides classed as: cellulose, hemicelluloses and pectic polysaccharides and glycoproteins.  Anchored to or embedded into plant cell wall are other polymers, like: lignin, suberin or cutin. Arabinogalactans can be found in plants as free glycans, or attached to rhamnogalacturonan-I or protein backbones.
