Tridacnin, a new mitogenic lectin from invertebrate sources

G Uhlenbruck et al. Z Immunitatsforsch Immunobiol. 1977 Sep.

Abstract

A new group of invertebrate lectins with anti-beta-galactosyl specificity, the so-called Tridacnins from the Tridacnid bivalve clams have been found to show not only agglutinating and precipitating properties, but also mitogenic activity as tested with human lymphocytes.
