Galactans of (Gracilariales, Rhodophyta) of Indian Waters
Natural Product Communications, 2014 Galactans from the Indian agarophyte Gracilaria pudumadamensis were extracted and characterized. The isolated native (GP Native ) and alkali treated (GP Alkali ) galactans were characterized by IR, 13 C NMR, GC-MS and GPC. It was found that GP Native and

Biosynthesis of the Galactan Component of the Mycobacterial Cell Wall [PDF]
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2000 The structural core of the cell walls of Mycobacterium spp. consists of peptidoglycan bound by a linker unit (-alpha-L-Rhap-(1-->3)-D-GlcNAc-P-) to a galactofuran, which in turn is attached to arabinofuran and mycolic acids. The sequence of reactions leading to the biogenesis of this complex starts with the formation of the linker unit on a polyprenyl ...

Galactan synthesis in a single step via oligomerization of monosaccharides
Beilstein Journal of Organic Chemistry, 2014 Galactans ranging in length from one to five residues were prepared in a single step by treatment of the glycosyl donor 2,3,4-tri-O-benzoyl-β-D-galactopyranosyl fluoride with lanthanum perchlorate in the presence of an initiator alcohol.
