TL;DR: In this paper, a microfibrillar phase embedded in an amorphous matrix was found to contain cellulose, together with tightly bound arabinoxylan and polysaccharides rich in mannose.
Abstract: Cell walls have been isolated from barley endosperm and found to contain a microfibrillar phase which is embedded in an amorphous matrix. The microfibrillar phase probably consists of cellulose, together with tightly bound arabinoxylan and polysaccharides rich in mannose. The matrix material is arabinoxylan (approx. 25%) and β-glucan (approx. 75%). Pectic polysaccharides are absent from the isolated cell walls. After successive removal of the matrix polysaccharides with water and 1-M NaOH, only 6% of the wall remains. The intra-cellular surfaces of the wall fragments are extensively pitted, probably as a result of adpression of starch granules into the cell wall material during endosperm development. Although polysaccharides are the major components of the cell walls, some nitrogen (less than 1%) is present. Phenolic compounds may also be wall constituents, but hydroxyproline could not be detected.

TL;DR: Nečas3 showed that spontaneously autolysing yeast gave rise to a small extent to structures which, superficially at least, resembled protoplasts.
Abstract: A NEW approach to the structure and functions of the cell surface of certain bacteria was revealed when Weibull1 showed that, in the presence of sucrose, lysozyme dissolves the cell-wall, leaving the protoplast essentially intact. Various attempts have since been made to isolate protoplasts from bacteria normally insensitive to lysozyme2 and also from yeast. Thus Necas3 showed that spontaneously autolysing yeast gave rise to a small extent to structures which, superficially at least, resembled protoplasts.

TL;DR: When inoculated into a synthetic medium, cells of Saccharomyces cerevisiae which had previously been subjected to repeated suspension alternately in two different media, were found to divide with a marked degree of synchrony and buds were formed almost immediately after cleavage.
