| [partial characterization of the pixuna virus receptor present on erythrocytes of one-day-old chicks]. | a study was undertaken to evaluate the physical, chemical and immunological aspects of a receptor for pixuna virus present on 1-day-old chicken erythrocytes. the proteases trypsin and chymotrypsin were able to expose more binding sites on the erythrocytes, increasing the hemagglutinating titer (p < 0.001). membrane components from red blood cell membranes (rog) were extracted with the nonionic detergent octyl glucoside. rog could bind to pixuna virus and prevent hemagglutination. when rog was fi ... | 1997 | 9424630 |
