“…However, soluble glycogen levels remain high and, after 20 h, its specific activity rises to 13 d/min/fig. As the percentage radioactivity in host glucans declines, that in glycogen does not rise significantly (Table 3) since there is concomitant incorporation of ^"^C into the soluble fraction as mannitol, arabitol and trehalose are synthesized (Holligan et al, 1974). In addition to glycogen, the only other insoluble glucan which incorporates substantial amounts of radioactivity is a glucomannan, probably a structural component of fungal cell walls .…”
