A water-soluble glucan isolated from an edible mushroom Termitomyces microcarpus.
A water-soluble glucan was isolated from an edible mushroom, Termitomyces microcarpus. On the basis of total acid hydrolysis, methylation analysis, periodate oxidation and NMR studies ((1)H, (13)C, TOCSY, DQF-COSY, NOESY and HSQC), the repeating unit of the polysaccharide is established as -->4)-alpha--Glcp-(1-->3)-beta--Glcp-(1-->
