Xyloglucan in the Cell Walls of Suspension-Cultured Rice Cells

Yoji Kato and Kazuo Matsuda

Department of Agricultural Chemistry, Faculty of Agriculture, Tohoku University Sendai, Miyagi 980, Japan

The xyloglucan present in the 24% KOH extract of the cell walls of suspension-cultured rice cells was characterized by fragmentation analysis with Trichoderma viride cellulase and Aspergillus oryzae ß-D-glucosidase. The xyloglucan is composed mainly of the following oligosaccharide units:

Results showed that the xyloglucan of suspension-cultured rice cells is more extensively branched than is that of rice seedlings. Another structural characteristic of the former xyloglucan is the presence of D-galactosyl-D-xylosyl side chains that are not found in the latter.
