title: Purification of potato lectin (Solanum tuberosum agglutinin) from tubers or fruits using chromatofocusing.
abstract: The lectin from potato tubers (Solanum tuberosum agglutinin) has been purified to homogeneity by a procedure involving chromatofocusing followed by gel filtration. By subjecting tuber and fruit extracts from an individual plant to this purification scheme, it was demonstrated that the lectins from those two tissues, though similar, are not identical.
