title: [Search for lectin producers among some yeast species].
abstract: Hemagglutinating properties of culture liquid and cells of 142 yeast strains of species Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Kluyveromyces marxianus, K. dobzhanskii, K. lactis var. lactis and K. lactis var. drosophilarum, isolated from various sources have been studied. A capacity of yeast (44% of the studied strains) to synthesize both lectins bound to a cell and extracellular lectins has been established; the latter have been found in yeast for the first time.
