A polypeptide believed to be the monomeric form of the lectin responsible for the coaggregation of Capnocytophaga gingivalis (emended) and Actinomyces israelii has been identified. Denaturing polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and immunoblot analyses were used to distinguish the protein from other proteins in the outer membrane of C. gingivalis. The subunit of the putative lectin has a pI of 8.6 and a molecular weight of 155,000.
