Chemistry and Biology of Galactofuranose-Containing Polysaccharides

The thermodynamically less stable form of galactose--galactofuranose (Galf)--is essential for the viability of several pathogenic species of bacteria and protozoa but absent in this form in mammals, so the biochemical pathways by which Galf-containing glycans are assembled and catabolysed are attrac...
