Prespore- and prestalk-specific, wheat germ agglutinin (WGA) binding proteins in Dictyostelium discoideum were identified on two-dimensional gels by the use of a peroxidase–antiperoxidase method. Using these proteins as markers, differentiation of the two presumptive cell types was examined during the development. In normal development, two groups of prespore-specific WGA-binding proteins were found: one was detectable when cells formed discrete aggregates without tips (10.5 h) and reached a maximum level at 12 h, while the other appeared at the time of slug formation (17 h). On the other hand, a prestalk-specific WGA-binding protein, having an unusually high pI value (pI ca. 9.5), began to accumulate just before slug formation (13.5 h). The changes of WGA-binding proteins in a shake culture system were similarly analysed and compared with those in normal development.
