Towards a comprehensive chemical and genetic tool library for rhamnogalacturonan-II oligosaccharides and exploitation

2026-03-16

Abstract excerpt

Rhamnogalacturonan-II (RG-II) is considered the most complex glycan in nature. It forms part of an intricate network of complex glycans in the plant cell wall where it plays a critical role in plant growth, development and defence. It has been identified as an important nutrient source for the human gut microbiota (HGM), a key modulator of human health and disease status. Increasing evidence also suggests that RG-...
