| CHARACTERIZATION | Mannose-binding activity is abundantly present in chicken serum. Unlike hepatic lectins or other mannose-binding proteins, this protein does not require calcium for binding mannose-containing glycoconjugates. The chicken serum mannose-binding protein is immunochemically distinct from the chicken hepatic lectin and rabbit serum mannose-binding protein. |
