A factor which precipitates amylose has been isolated from Lentinellus ursinus (Fr.) Kühner fruit bodies. This factor could be a protein or a polypeptide. Glucose, maltose, and amylopectin do not affect the binding of amylose. Amylose binding is unaffected by temperature (4 to 40 C) or pH (6 to 8.5).
