Isolation and structural studies on a galactofuranosyl-containing glycopeptide from Ascobolus furfuraceus
A galactofuranosyl-containing glycopeptide has been isolated from mycelium of Ascobolus furfuraceus by extraction with water. The glycoconjugate was purified by DEAE-cellulose chromatography followed by gel filtration. A molecular weight of about 20 000 was determined by the latter method using stan...
