Abstract: The sponge Dysidea herbacea (Keller)was found to possess hemagglutinins. The major component, DHA-I, is a protein with a mol.wt of 26,000 which dissociates into subunits of equal size (14,000). It contains large amounts of glutamic acid and aspartic acid residues, but no half-cystine, methionine or histidine residues. DHA-I reacted with rabbit and human ABO erythrocytes. D-galactose and lactose were effective inhibitors of DHA-I. The sponge also contained aminor component(s)which reacted preferentially with rabbit erythrocytes but not with human ABO erythrocytes.
