Abstract
1. 1. Perchloric acid-soluble fraction from liver metastases of pancreas carcinoma of a patient with blood group B, was subjected to a systematic affinity chromatography using Vicia unijuga lectin (VUA) and Arachis hypogaea anti-T lectin (PNA) as immobilized ligands and separated into three fractions, B-active glycoprotein fraction, serologically inactive glycoprotein fraction and glycoprotein (VP) fraction exhibiting reactivities for Vicia graminea lectin (VGA), VUA and PNA. 2. 2. VGA- and VUA-binding (Vgu) glycoprotein with Thomsen-Friedenreich (T) activity which was isolated, in a high state of purity, from VP fraction by HPLC using Asahipak GS-710 column, was demonstrated to be a mannose-rich glycoprotein with mol. wt of 1492 kDa and contained 40.40% carbohydrate.
