Saludos.
De antemano gracias.

One remaining question about Pel is its biochemical composition. Although the original study identified Pel as a glucose-rich matrix material [12], its defined structure and feature have not been completely understood. Recently, the main glucose-containing carbohydrate of the extracellular matrix of P. aeruginosa PA14 was characterized to be glycerophosphorylated cyclic β-(1,3)-glucans, which was synthesized by ndvB locus but not the pel operon [35]. A systematic analysis of the extracelular carbohydrates produced by P. aeruginosa PA14 elucidated the structure of a LPS O-antigen polysaccharide, which suggested that the pel locus might be involved in the production of the LPS [36]. Recently, biochemical studies identified PelF as a cytosolic glycosyltransferase that utilizes UDP-glucose as substrate for Pel synthesis [37]. In addition, Colvin and his coworkers examined the deacetylase activity of PelA and found that this function is important for the production of the Pel polysaccharide [38]. Both studies contributed to the understanding of the synthesis of Pel in P. aeruginosa.

β-(1,3)-glucanos cíclicos glicerofosforilados
Explanation:
Los compuestos son oligosacáridos cíclicos (glucanos) en los cuales los azúcares individuales están unidos mediante enlaces glicosídidos β-(1,3). El término "glicerofosforilados" se refiere a la presencia de grupos O-PO2-O-CH2-CH(OH)-CH2OH.
