Monovalent derivatives of concanavalin A. [PDF]
Monovalent dimers of concanavalin A (Con A) have been prepared by a combination of succinylation and photoaffinity labeling. Partial derivatization of native Con A using the photoaffinity label, p-azidophenyl-alpha-D-mannopyranoside, followed by affinity chromatography yielded a fraction that consisted of dimers with a single saccharide-binding site at

INTERACTION OF CONCANAVALIN A WITH MODEL SUBSTRATES* [PDF]
During the last few years concanavalin A has become the most widely known and intensively investigated phytohemagglutinin. Much of this interest stems from the discovery that this lectin possesses several remarkable biological properties. In addition to its role as a hemagglutinin,' a structural probe,' and a mitogen,"-" concanavalin A has been shown ...
