Albersheim, P

The polymers that have been identified as components of cell walls include two hemicelluloses (xyloglucan and xylan), three pectine polysaccharides (homogalacturonan, rhamnogalacturonan I, and rhamnogalacturonan II, and hydroxproline- and glycine-rich glycoproteins. This report discribes the results of studies into the molecular structure if these plant polysaccharides. 5 figs.
