Abstract

Up-to-date information concerning the chemical structure and properties of trehalose, its natural occurrence and biological functions in plants, fungi, and prokaryotes, as well as its practical application, mainly in medicine and biotechnology, are reviewed. A special section deals with the role of trehalose and other protective polyols in stress processes in fungi.
