title: Affinity chromatography of human serum proteins using immobilized lectin from Allomyrina dichotoma.
abstract: The beta-D-galactoside-specific lectin from Allomyrina dichotoma reacts with serum proteins which contain the corresponding carbohydrate moieties. By affinity chromatography of human serum using the insolubilized lectin coupled to Sepharose, it is possible to fractionate human serum proteins in 2 groups: those which react with the lectin (alpha 1-acid glycoprotein, haptoglobin, etc.) and those which do not (albumin, Gc-globulin, etc.). IgG is the only serum protein that can be found in both groups.
