title: Glycoproteins of axonal transport. Interaction with heparin.
abstract: Rapidly transported fucose-containing glycoproteins, in axons and nerve terminals, from retinal ganglion cells of the rabbit have been characterized via affinity chromatography on a new fucose-specific lectin from Aleuria aurantia. It was found that a relatively small number of highly labelled transported polypeptides did not bind to heparin-Sepharose. These polypeptides also showed a low affinity for the dye Coomassie brilliant blue following sodium dodecyl sulphate electrophoresis.
