title: Preparation of monovalent succinyl-concanavalin A and its mitogenic activity.
abstract: Monovalent succinyl-concanavalin A was prepared by photoaffinity labeling of succinyl-concanavalin A with p-azidophenyl a-D-mannopyranoside. This concanavalin A derivate showed a weak but definite mitogenic acitivity against mouse splenic lymphocytes and human peripheral lymphocytes, suggesting that direct receptor cross-linkage on the cell surface is not an obligatory prerequisite for the activation of lymphocytes.
