| Popis: | IN spite of much investigation the problem of the molecular mechanism of cellulose synthesis remains unsolved1. Hexose phosphates2, sugar nucleotides3–6 and a glycolipid7–9 have been suggested as the precursor of cellulose. Implicit in all these investigations is the supposition that a single substrate suffices for the synthesis. We describe here some preliminary observations which seem to throw new light on the possible mechanism. |
