Abstract

We have examined the lectinlike properties of pertussis toxin by binding-inhibition assays and affinity chromatography of goose erythrocyte membranes. Although pertussis toxin and wheat germ agglutinin apparently recognize similar sugar sequences on glycoproteins, the binding activities of the two lectins are not identical.
