[Polysaccharide structure of cell wall preparations from the food protein yeast Candida spec. H].
More than 27% of the cell wall are unstably bound components: Proteophosphomannan as a main polysaccharide of the cell wall, mannose and manno-oligosides which are bound to peptides or phosphate. 19% are glycosidically linked with a phosphate bridge or O-glycosidically (Ser/Thr) linked with the protein which is covalently bound to the cell wall. Besides mannose and glucose, manno-oligosides and gluco-oligosides are involved in this linkage. A preparation consisting of glucan and chitin remains after careful degradation. It contains (1,2)-, (1,3)- and (1,6)- linked glucose, (1, 2, 3)-, (1, 2, 6)- or (1, 3, 6)-glucose-branchpoints and (1,4)-linked N-acetylglucosamine.
