Concanavalin a receptors on the cell membrane of Trypanosoma cruzi
Acta Trop.
1978 Jun.
Abstract
Epimastigotes and trypomastigotes of T. cruzi obtained from acellular culture as well as bloodstream trypomastigotes agglutinate with concanavalin A (Con A). Con A-binding sites were also localized on the cell membrane by using the Con A-horseradish peroxidase-diaminobenzidine method. Passage of epimastigotes and trypomastigotes from acellular culture through DEAE-cellulose column did not affect Con A-binding sites as detected by agglutination and electron miscroscopy.
