The object of this work was to study the function of the mannan and glucan layers in the cell wall of Candida yeasts. When the outer mannan layer was removed with proteinases, the cells became round and their volume increased by a factor of 2.2. The contribution of the above layers into the elastic properties of the cell wall was estimated in qualitative terms. Apparently, mannans play a more important role in cell morphogenesis than it was supposed earlier.
这项工作的目的是研究念珠菌酵母细胞壁中甘露聚糖层和葡聚糖层的功能。当用蛋白酶去除外层甘露聚糖层时,细胞变成圆形,其体积增加了2.2倍。从定性的角度评估了上述各层对细胞壁弹性特性的贡献。显然,甘露聚糖在细胞形态发生中所起的作用比之前认为的更为重要。
