Cellulose is a polysaccharide made up of D-glucose monomers. It is the most abundant type of macromolecule on earth, making up of the plant and algal cell wall. Since the D-glucose monomers form β-(1→4)-linkages, cellulose is a linear polymer.
The main function of cellulose is to provide structural support to the plant cell and protection to the internal structures of the cell.
Chitin
Chitin is the polysaccharide made up of N-acetyl-D-glucosamine monomers. The basic structure of chitin is similar to that of cellulose. The main function of chitin is to provide strength and support to the fungal cell wall. Moreover, chitin is the main structural component of the exoskeleton of arthropods such as insects and crustaceans.
