Yeast Cell Wall Glycoproteins

  • Conference paper
Fungal Cell Wall and Immune Response

Part of the book series: NATO ASI Series ((ASIH,volume 53))

Abstract

In higher cells, glycoproteins play a variety of functions as surface receptors, cell-cell mediators, carriers of enzyme activities, components of the extracellular matrix, etc. In most glycoproteins, the protein moiety will be the functional part whereas the carbohydrate moiety would contribute to the attainment of an adequate tertiary structure, modify the glycoprotein molecule making it more resistant to degradation, and facilitate its secretion.
