title: A Lewis X hapten is the major glycolipid of Japanese quail intestine.
abstract: A fucolipid isolated from Japanese quail intestine was identified as beta-galactosyl-1,4-(alpha-fucosyl-1,3-) beta-N-acetylglucosaminyl-1,3-beta-galactosyl-1,4-beta-glucosyl-1,1-cera mide, a glycolipid which exhibits X-hapten activity. Analysis of the tissue at various embryonic stages showed that the fucolipid is characteristically present at later stages of organogenesis.
