Abstract
Extracts of adult chicken liver, pancreas and intestine contain high levels of a lectin which appears to be identical to 1 previously purified from embryonic chick muscle. This lectin is virtually absent from adult muscle, but is highly concentrated in cells lining liver sinusoids, intestinal goblet cells and the extracellular spaces surrounding pancreatic acini. The lectin may play different roles in different tissues and at different times in the life of a chicken.This publication has 16 references indexed in Scilit:
