Abstract
⺠Lectin BSB4 specific for terminal α-galactose reacts with Plasmodium falciparum and Trypanosoma brucei blood stages. ⺠T. brucei not P. falciparum proteins strongly bind BSB4-Sepharose. ⺠T. brucei not P. falciparum terminally galactosylates proteins and lipids. ⺠New galactosylated glycoconjugates detected in T. brucei. ⺠Bioinformatic search finds no evidence for P. falciparum α-galactosyl transferase.
