Abstract
The human serum proteins CRP, the 9.5 S.alpha.1-glycoprotein and C1q [q fragment of complement component 1] showed, when tested in agar gel diffusion under certain buffer conditions, strong precipitin reactions with polysaccharides of the galactan type, indicating that they may have lectin-like recognition sites.This publication has 3 references indexed in Scilit:
