Abstract:Sugar analysis of the 0-specific polysaccharide produced by Citrobacter serotype 0 4 1 revealed the presence of a hexasaccharide repeating unit, which includes the unusual 3-amino-N-(~-3'-hydroxybutyryl)-3,6-dideoxy-~-galactosyl residue (Fuc3NAcyl). The structure of the repeating unit was determined by extensive use of homo-and heteronuclear two-dimensional NMR spectroscopy, including the application of long-range 'H-I3C correlation experiments and NOE studies to establish the sequence of sugar units.
