Precipitation of potato (Solanum tuberosum) lectin by antisera was not affected by treatments that abolish lectin activity. An antiserum precipitated glycosylated derivatives of the lectin but not a deglycosylated peptide. The haemagglutination inhibition titre of this antiserum was not affected by removing anti-glycopeptide antibodies. This evidence suggests that the antiserum contains two populations of antibodies, specific for different domains of the lectin.
