Raffinose
Raffinose is a trisaccharide composed of alpha-D-galactopyranose, alpha-D-glucopyranose and beta-D-fructofuranose joined in sequence by 16 and 12 glycosidic linkages, respectively. It has a role as a mouse metabolite, a Saccharomyces cerevisiae metabolite and a plant metabolite. It is a trisaccharide and a raffinose family oligosaccharide. — ChEBI
