Structure of a galactomannan isolated from the cell wall of the fungus Lineolata rhizophorae

5 páginas, 2 figuras, 2 tablas -- PAGS nros. 2599-2603The structure of an alkali-extracted water-soluble polysaccharide isolated from the cell wall of the marine fungus Lineolata rhizophorae has been elucidated by chemical and spectroscopic means. The idealized repeating unit of this novel structure is being m ≈ 41, n ≈ 2, and p ≈ 5This work was supported by Grant DGI-CTQ2006-10874-C02-01 and 02 from Ministerio de Educación y Ciencia of SpainPeer reviewe
