Abstract

Two hypoglycemic principles, ganoderans B and C, isolated from the fruit bodies of Ganoderma lucidum were shown to be peptidoglycans with M,s of 7400 and 5800, respectively. Physico-chemical and chemical studies demonstrated that the backbone and side chains of ganoderan B contain D-glucopyranosyl β-1 → 3 and β-1 → 6 linkages while those of ganoderan C contain D-glucopyranosyl β-1 → 3 and β-1 → 6 linkages and a D-galactopyranosyl α-1 → 6 linkage.
