Lectin from mistletoe (Viscum coloratum) were obtained by salt fractionation, gel filtration and anion exchange chromatography. A molecular weight of about 60,000D has been determined by SDS-PAGE and two basic subunits which have molecular weights of 33,000D and 28,000D are linked by a disulfide bond. The partially purified mistletoe lectins agglutinated human B erythrocytes. Agglutinating activity was relatively stable at varied pH $(3.77{sim}8.71)$ and at temperature range of $0{sim}40^{circ}C$ and not affected by 9 metal ions. Galactose, lactose and N-acetyl-D- galactosamine inhibited agglutinating activity of lectin. Lectin from mistletoe was more mitogenic to murine lymphocytes than concanavalin A.
