Wheat germ agglutinin (WGA) is one of the most widely used lectins in cell biology. Our Alexa Fluor™ 594 conjugate of WGA exhibits the bright, red fluorescence of the Alexa Fluor™ 594 dye (excitation/emission maxima ∼590/617 nm). Alexa Fluor™ 594 WGA binds to sialic acid and N-acetylglucosaminyl residues.
