Glucans of oomycete cell walls

Glucans of oomycete cell walls

J M Aronson et al. Science. .

Abstract

The cell walls of selected oomycetous fungi are composed primarily of glucans, and cellulose constitutes a relatively small proportion of the total glucan. The noncellulosic constituents consist of acid-soluble glucan or glucans and insoluble glucan or glucans. These noncellulosic glucan fractions contain beta-(1-->3) glucosidic linkages and apparently beta-(1-->6) linkages also.
