N-linked glycans of Schizophyllum commune consist of Man5-9GlcNAc2 structures. Lack of further glycan maturation is explained by the absence of genes encoding such functions in this and other homobasidiomycetes. N-linked glycans in vegetative mycelium and fruiting bodies of S. commune are mainly Man7GlcNAc2 and Man5GlcNAc2, respectively, suggesting more efficient mannose trimming in the mushroom.
