Presence in a plant of a compound similar to the dolichyl diphosphate oligosaccharide of animal tissue.

摘要

A compound with properties identical with the glucose-containing dolichyl diphosphate oligosaccharide present in animal tissues was detected in alfalfa roots incubated with [14C]glucose. The products of mild acid hydrolysis behaved the same on paper chromatography, on treatment with specific glucosidases and on N-deacetylation.
