THE DISTRIBUTION AND ASYMMETRY OF MAMMALIAN CELL SURFACE SACCHARIDES UTILIZING FERRITIN-CONJUGATED PLANT AGGLUTININS AS SPECIFIC SACCHARIDE STAINS

The preparation, properties, and some applications of ferritin conjugates of two plant agglutinins, concanavalin A and Ricinus communis agglutinin, are reported. These conjugates serve as specific electron-dense stains for cell- and membrane-bound saccharide residues of the α-D-mannopyranosyl and β...
