Linear phycoxyloglucan with oligo-xylose domains in the green seaweed Ulva: a unique hemicellulose.
The major hemicellulose of Ulva is a β-(1→4)-linked linear polysaccharide of Xyl and Glc, which the authors term phycoxyloglucan, which has runs of up to three contiguous β-Xyl and three contiguous β-Glc residues, thus differing fundamentally from land-plant xyloglucan.
