Abstract
From mistletoe extracts, a chitin-binding lectin (cbML) was isolated and its primary structure determined. The protein is composed of two identical protein chains, linked by am interchenary disulfide bond. Each chain is characterized by four intrachenary disulfide bridges. The structure shows high homology to hevein, one of the prominent allergens of natural rubber latex. cbML could also be detected in commercially available pharmaceutical mistletoe extract preparations. The described isolation procedure and characterization allows isolation of cbML in highly pure form and sufficient quantities, now ready for unequivocal determination for its pharmacological effects.
