Cordeiro, L. M. C./ F. Beilke./ V. De Fátima Reinhardt/ G. L. Sassaki/ M. Iacomini 2013: Rhamnogalactofuranan from the microalga Myrmecia biatorellae, symbiotic partner of Lobaria linita. - Phytochemistry 94: 254-259. [RLL List # 233 / Rec.# 35074]
Keywords: Lichen/ Lobaria linita/ Myrmecia biatorellae/ Polysaccharide/ Rhamnogalactofuranan/ Symbiotic microalgae
Abstract: A structural study of the cell wall polysaccharides of Myrmecia biatorellae, the symbiotic algal partner of the lichenized fungus Lobaria linita was carried out. It produced a cold-water insoluble rhamnogalactofuranan, with a (1?3)-linked ?-D-galactofuranosyl main-chain, substituted at O-6 by single units of ?-D-Galf, or by side-chains of 2-O- and 2,4-di-O-linked ?-L-Rhap units. The structure of the polysaccharide was established by chemical and NMR spectroscopic analysis. © 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
