Effect of lysozyme on plasma membranes of liver and heart cells: Lectin binding assay

Lectin binding assay was applied to polyacrylamide slices to study the effects of lysozyme on carbohydrate profile of plasma membranes from liver and heart tissues. The investigations were carried out on polyacrylamide slices immobilized with wheat germ agglutinin or Concanavalin A. It was shown that lysozyme changes the carbohydrate profile of plasma membranes of liver and heart cells.
