Overview

Pisum sativum lectin or agglutinin (PSA) is isolated from peas and purified by affinity chromatography. The lectin has four subunits and a molecular weight of 49 kDa. PSA agglutinates human erythrocytes but is not blood group specific. It displays specificity toward α-D-mannose and α-D-glucose and has mitogenic activity similar to Concanavalin A. Pisum sativum lectin is supplied as a white to cream coloured lyophilized powder. The purity of PSA is determined by SDS- electrophoresis, which generates two bands at 17 kDa and 5,7 kDa corresponding to the α- and ?-chains that are formed in solution, below pH 5.8.
