Abstract
A lectin purified from the seeds of the Vietnamese Artocarpus integrif olia distinguishes between the mouse T-cell lymphoma cell lines Eb and ESb, with low and high metastatic potential, respectively. It aggluti nates Eb cells as well as human erythrocytes, but not ESb cells or the human colon carcinoma cells HT29. The haemagglutinin is specific for alpha-galactosyl residues and has a molecular mass of 62 kDa.
