Popis: SUMMARY The R1 antigen of chicken red cells, which is associated with susceptibility to a subgroup B leukosis-sarcoma virus, has been isolated. This antigen is cross-related to structures on the human blood-group MN antigens and, as in the latter, sialic acid is apparently part of its immunodominant grouping. R1 antigen inhibited influenza viruses and to a lesser extent Vicia graminea anti-N reagent. Plant proteases inactivated the antigen.
