Abstract
The two exocellular polysaccharides of Candida bogoriensis contain D-mannose, D-fucose, L-rhamnose, D-glucuronic acid, and D-galactose residues. The main heteropolymer (> 80%) has an α-D-(1 → 3)-linked mannan main-chain as shown by successive Smith degradations. Partial hydrolysis of the heteropolymers provided several methylpentose-containing oligosaccharide fragments corresponding to possible side-chain components.Keywords
