VARIOUS substances isolated from plants cause animal cells to clump. Several of these lectins1preferentially agglutinate cells which have been transformed spontaneously or by chemicals or viruses2–7. The best known lectins of this class are concanavalin A (Con A) isolated from jack beans8and wheat germ agglutinin4, which seem to bind to carbohydrate groups on the cell surface. The determinants recognized by the lectins seem to be N-acetyl-D-glucosamine for WGA4and probably α-methyl-D-glucopyranoside for Con A6.
