Morphology and structural integrity of fungal cells depend on cell wall polysaccharides. The chemical structure and biosynthesis of two types of these polysaccharides, chitin and (1rarr3)-beta-glucan, have been studied extensively, whereas little is known about alpha-glucan. Here we describe the chemical structure of alpha-glucan isolated from wild-type and mutant cell walls of the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe. Wild-type alpha-glucan was found to consist of a single population of linear glucose polymers, sim260 residues in length. These glucose polymers were composed of two interconnected linear chains, each consisting of sim120 (1rarr3)-linked alpha-d-glucose residues and some (1rarr4)-linked alpha-d-glucose residues at the redu...
