Abstract
A GROUP of proteins occurring commonly in plant extracts have the property of agglutinating blood cells by intercellular linkage of surface carbohydrate groups1,2. These proteins, usually called lectins, are often able to distinguish cell types by preferentially agglutinating cells which express a particular membrane glycoprotein3. We report here that one lectin, wheat germ agglutinin (WGA)4, is able to distinguish a group of mouse leukocytes carrying neither immunoglobulin nor T-cell surface markers.
