Abstract
The structure of the O-poly saccharide component of the lipopolysaccharide produced by Escherichia coli O17 (ATCC 23512) was determined by the use of methylation, periodate oxidation, one- and two-dimensional nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, and mass spectrometric methods. The O-polysaccharide was found to be a high molecular weight polymer of repeating branched pentasaccharide units composed of D-mannose, D-glucose, and 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-D-glucose residues (3:1:1) and had the structure: (Formula: see text).
