Structural insights into antigen recognition of an anti-β-(1,6)-β-(1,3)-D-glucan antibody

Abstract Schizophyllan (SCH) is a high molecular weight homopolysaccharide composed of a β-(1,3)-D-glucan main chain with branching β-(1,6)-bound D-glucose residues. It forms triple helices that are highly stable towards heat and extreme pH, which provides SCH with interesting properties for industr...
