Candida bogoriensis

An a-D-(l— 3)-linked D-mannopyranan was prepared from a complex heteropolymer of Candida bogoriensis,124 but the quantity was small, and only the C-l signal (8C 103.8) was positively identified.12... 

Candida bogoriensis polysaccharides contain a (1— 3)-linked a-D-mannopyranosyl main-chain. Fucopyranosyl, rhamnopyranosyl, and galactofuranosyl nonreducing end-units are present, and side-chain components are represented by partial-hydrolysis products, a-L-Rhap-...
