Agglutination of Japanese encephalitis virus with concanavalin A.

Y Yoshinaka, T Shiomi
PMCID: PMC354503  PMID: 1113378

Abstract

Results of experiments have indicated that reduction in biological activities at high concentrations of Japanese encephalitis virus is caused by aggregates of the virus by concanavalin A. The possibility exists that the concanavalin A binding site is different from hemagglutination and antireceptor sites of Japanese encephalitis virus.
