Abstract:
The capsular polysaccharide from Acinetobacter lwoffii F78 was isolated and purified, and its structure was elucidated by chemical analyses, NMR spectroscopy, and mass spectrometry. The presence of a capsule on this bacterium was confirmed by transmission electron microscopy experiments, and the utilization of the antilipid A monoclonal antibody proved the nonendotoxin origin of the isolated material. The structure represents a novel nonbranched aminopolysaccharide with high heterogeneity of amino groups substituents: →3)‐α‐ L ‐FucNAc‐(1→3)‐β‐ D ‐QuiNR 1 4NR 2 ‐(1→4)‐β‐ L ‐GlcNR 3 3NR 4 A‐(1→, where R 1 = 3‐hydroxybutyric acid (3‐HBA) or N ‐acetylated alanine (AlaNAc), R 2 = AlaNAc or 3‐HBA, R 3 = acetyl or 3‐HBA, and R 4 = 3‐HBA or acetyl.(© Wiley‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.
