Galactofuranose in eukaryotes: aspects of biosynthesis and functional impact

Galactofuranose (Galf) is the five-membered ring form of galactose. It is widely distributed among several branches of the eukaryotic kingdom. This review highlights recent advances in our understanding of the biosynthesis and function of Galf-containing glycoconjugates in fungal Aspergillus spp. an...
