Isolation and partial characterisation of galactosespecific lectins from African yam beans, Sphenostylis stenocarpa Harms

A new galactose-specific lectin was isolated from African yam bean (Sphenostyles stenocarpa Harms) by affinity chromatography on galactose-Sepharose 4B. SDS–PAGE analysis resulted in four polypeptide bands of approximately 27, 29, 32 and 34 kDa, respectively. Based on the analysis of carbohydrate co...
