Summary: Analysis of the wheat germ agglutinin (WGA) binding proteins in the cellular slime moulds Dictyostelium mucoroides, D. rosarium, D. purpureum, Polysphondylium violaceum and P. pallidum revealed many cell-type specific proteins in each species examined. Furthermore, three species D. mucoroides, D. rosarium and P. violaceum, were found to have a wst34-like protein in their stalk cells. Wst34, which was originally identified in D. discoideum, is a stalk-specific WGA-binding protein having a molecular mass of 34 kDa and pI values of between 5·5 and 6·5.
