DoLPHiN: A structural and functional database of natural polysaccharides with health benefits

Title Value
Polysaccharide 50W
Source Name Artemisia afra
Weight 18kDa
Main Glycosidic Bond(s)
β-GalA-(1→6)
Main Chain ich in 1,4-linked galacturonic acid residues, and all except Fr. 100W2 contained significant amounts of galacturonic acid residues that additionally were branched in either position 2 or 3
Side Chain galactose units were mostly 1,6-linked with significant branching at position 3, thus providing the important side-chains often observed in AGII structures
