Fig. 1

a Simplified structures of Candida cell wall polysaccharides within mobile and rigid phases as highlighted in pale yellow and cyan background colors, respectively. The color code and NMR abbreviations for different carbohydrates are provided. H: β-1,6-glucan (cyan); B: β−1,3-glucan (blue); BBr: β−1,3,6-linked glucose unit; Mn1,2: α−1,2-linked mannose (light brown); Mn1,6: α−1,6-linked mannose (brown); Ch: chitin (orange). Filled black circles: H atoms; open circles: C atoms; blue circles: N atoms; red circles: O atoms. b 2D 13C-13C 53-ms CORD spectra detecting rigid cell wall polysaccharides in C. albicans. c Mobile molecules of C. albicans detected through 2D 13C DP J-INADEQUATE spectrum. Additional abbreviations: Gal: galactose; Glc: glucose.
