In chemistry, proton refers to hydrogen missing its electron, ie a hydrogen nucleus.

That's a question for Mr. Bojangles. It was his entry.

mtlmike90, can you start up another guess?

If not, does anyone have a chemical they can post?

I gotta admit the SEM picture threw me for a loop since its not technically a fungi is it?  Anyways, still fun to figure out :grin:

Beta-glucan, is the molecule and the organism is Schizosaccharomyces pombeS. pombe is a type of fission yeast that has become quite popular as a model organism, used to study cell cycles and genetic regulation of such cycles. 

Beta-glucan is a polymer of D-glucose (a carbohydrate/sugar) molecules that are joined by beta glycosidic bonds.  The D-glucose molecule is the base structure you see in the picture while the glycosidic bonds are represented by the "dotted lines".  Beta-glucan makes up the cell wall of many organisms including microbial yeast, fungi, and plants.

Why would Schizosaccharomyces pombe not be considered a true fungi?

You are so close you pretty much have it. The fungus is correct and yes it is a fungus, all yeasts are. I'm gonna give you a hint.

B-glucan is correct however I'm looking for the name of the B-1,3 only polymer. Beta refers to the fact that it can form beta glycosidic bonds which is why it is called beta-glucan instead of alpha-glucan which forms alpha glycosidc bonds. B-glucan polymers have differnt names depending on the betabond or combinations of beta bonds. This is a B-1,3 glucan polymer of varying lengths that also associate with proteins and makes up part of the fungal cell wall.

Yeah its a fungi, my bad on the assumption.

So a beta-1,3-glucan only polymer would that make it pachyman then?

Ah alright, guess there are a few then.  So is the difference between zymosan, curdlan and pachyman in molecular weight and nomenclature?  Or is it more secondary structure?

As for the next guess we have a chemical that's essential to just about everything:



Even this nasty little bugger:

You're on the right track, pay particular attention to the molecules attached to the 1' carbon of the ribose rings.

Yes they differ by molecular weight and associated proteins. I'm tryig to figure out what kind of nucleotide that is. the 2' phosphate is really throwing me off.
