title: Presence of influenza virus-reactive glycophorins other than glycophorin A in human erythrocyte membranes.
abstract: The reactivities against seven hemagglutinins including influenza A and B viruses of six sialoglycoprotein (glycophorin) fractions, M-Frs.1-3 and N-Frs.1-3, separated from human OMs and ONs erythrocyte membranes by a combination of the LIS-phenol method and gel filtration were studied. The serological results show that M-Fr.1 and N-Fr.1 were glycophorins AM and AN, respectively, the reactivities against influenza A and B viruses of both M-Fr.2 and N-Fr.2 which contained glycophorins B and C were remarkably higher than that of glycophorin A and the reactivities against influenza viruses of both M-Fr.3 and N-Fr.3 which contained glycophorins B and D were considerably lower than that of glycophorin A.
