title: Isolation of a lectin from the pericarp of potato (Solanum tuberosum) fruits.
abstract: A lectin has been isolated from potato (Solanum tuberosum) fruits by affinity adsorption on to glutaraldehyde-fixed erythrocytes and elution with oligomers of N-acetylglucosamine. The characteristics of the lectin resemble those of the potato tuber lectin and other closely related lectins from solanaceous plants.
