Abstract

Incubation of calf brain membrane preparations with the plant lectins, concanavalin A and wheat germ agglutinin did not inhibit neurotransmitter receptor binding sites directly. Plant lectins did however protect these sites against subsequent trypsin digestion suggesting that neurotransmitter binding sites may be associated with glycoprotein structures.
