The putative carrageenan biosynthetic pathways in red algae26,27. Steps that have been experimentally elucidated are highlighted in red7,28. Galactose-sulfurylase reactions that have been experimentally elucidated are shown in more detail, that is the conversion of mu- to kappa-, and nu- to iota-carrageenan7,28. ST = sulfotransferase.
