Comparative studies of the haemagglutination of adult and umbilical cord erythrocytes by animal lectins.
???displayArticle.abstract???
1. The sugar specificities of four lactose-binding lectins were studied through the agglutination of adult and/or umbilical cord human erythrocytes (AHRBC and/or CHRBC). 2. Rana catesbeiana egg lectin specifically agglutinated both intact blood group A-AHRBC and intact blood group A-CHRBC. 3. Rana catesbeiana liver lectin agglutinated intact A-AHRBC much more strongly than intact A-CHRBC. 4. Xenopus laevis skin lectin nonspecifically agglutinated AHRBC and CHRBC. 5. Plecoglossus altivelis egg lectin specifically agglutinated intact B-AHRBC, but weakly agglutinated intact B-CHRBC. 6. Comparative studies of lectin-induced AHRBC or CHRBC agglutination clarified the sugar-binding specificities of these lectins.
