Abstract

ABSTRACT Egg yolks from hens immunized with peptidophosphogalactomannan (pPGalMan ii ), which contains 10 phosphocholine diester residues and is secreted by Penicillium fellutanum , contain antibodies against 5- O -β- d -galactofuranosyl epitopes. These epitopes were the only significant determinants in pPGalMan ii . Approximately 60-fold less pPGalMan ii (1.6 μM galactofuran chains) was required for 50% inhibition than galactofurano-oligosaccharides or pPGalMan containing two galactofuranosyl residues per chain.
