Abstract
⺠We have analyzed the production of an exocellular polysaccharide by Ustilago maydis. ⺠The polysaccharide was secreted only by mutants deficient in the Pal/Rim pathway. ⺠The polysaccharide was identified as a novel unbranched (1 â 3)-β-d-glucan. ⺠The use of the polysaccharide in medical and industrial applications is entertained.
