CHARACTERIZATION OF LECTINS FROM TRIPARTITE LICHEN PELTIGERA APHTHOSA (L.) WILLD

Abstract
Agglutinin from the Peltigera aphthosa (L.) Willd. thalli was purified and characterized. It was determined, that it is a glycoprotein lectin with D-galactose specificity. Decreasement of lectin’s concentration from the apical parts of a thallium to it’s basal region was shown as common distribution pattern. Fine variations in agglutinating activity reflect physiological differences in the corresponding regions and their symbiotic status.
