Abstract

The venomous marine animal Lytechinus variegatus (Lamarck) has been found to contain an antineoplastic glycoprotein. Separation of an aqueous extract of this Western Atlantic sea urchin by a series of macro reticular resin (or centrifugation) and gel permeation chromatographic sequences led to the new glycoprotein designated lytechinastatin.
