Scope note: La principal sialoglicoproteína de la membrana eritrocitaria humana. Consta de al menos dos sialoglicopéptidos y está compuesta de un 60 por ciento de carbohidratos que incluyen el ácido siálico y un 40 por ciento de proteínas. Está implicada en numerosas actividades biológicas que incluyen la unión de los grupos sanguíneos MN, los virus de la gripe, la fitohemaglutinina de la alubia roja y la aglutinina del germen de trigo.
