Hi Chris

Is this not the same as the existing ChEBI entry for arabinan?

arabinan (CHEBI:22590) is a homopolysaccharide (CHEBI:37164)

(This doesn't currently doesn't have a definition but I have now added "A polysaccharide composed of arabinose residues."

Hah, it seems we're a little inconsistent in GO. I've bounced this one back to us until we have ourselves sorted out:
