Molecular structure of :
| Spodoptera exigua
|
| Lecster ID:608 | Edit Entry |
| Source Organism: | |
| Species: | Spodoptera exigua |
| Common Nomenclature: | |
| Class: | |
| Index Nomenclature: | LECi.Spo.Exi.xx.Xxxx |
| Characterization Notes: | The agglutinin may be involved in the immune response of the insect e.g., by opsonization of microbial (fungal) surfaces which render the invading cells more susceptible to phagocytosis or agglutination. |
| Biological Activity: | Hemolymph from Spodoptera exigua larvae agglutinates rabbit and human O erythrocytes. |
| Source Tissue: | Larvae hemolymph |
| Specificity: | Galactose |
| Inhibitors: | Hemagglutinin activity is destroyed by heat or EDTA, and galactosidic carbohydrate s inhibit agglutination of both red blood cell types. |
