Emxdsin (synaptase), found in the seeds of the Bitter Almond, Cherry Laurel leaves, in the barks of the Wild Black Cherry and Choke Cherry and in other Rosaceous plant parts, in Manihot utilissima, Polygala species, etc., hydrolyzes the glucoside present (either amygdalin or 1-mandelonitrile glucoside) to hydrocyanic acid, benzaldehyde and glucose.

Pectins are polymers of D-GalpAin a-1—>4. PolyGalAthat is partially methylated is known as pectinic acids while polyGalA with no or only a negligible amount of methyl ester is called pectic acid. GalA is also a constituent of plant gums and mucilages... 

Two triterpene saponins (42, 43, Fig. 104.2) having the unusual aglycone, 2-oxo-olean-12-ene-3 S,27-dihydroxy-23,28-dioic acid, were isolated from Polygala crotalarioides, a well-known folk tonic medicine in Yunnan Wa (China) [23]. They possess the common substitutions at C-3 by a Glc and at C-28 by the sequence Fuc -Rha" -Xyl which is substituted by a glucopyranosyl unit at Fuc-3 in the case of 43.
