Abstract
The present invention relates to a method for purifying a recombinant glucose binding protein, in particular the lectin Concanavalin A (Con A). The method specifically utilizes a buffer in which impurities, such as glycogen and other substances are soluble, but in which the protein remains insoluble. The use of such buffers, and the purified proteins are also described.
