Ev. Vinogradov et al., THE STRUCTURE OF THE O-SPECIFIC POLYSACCHARIDE OF SALMONELLA-ARIZONAE-O21 (ARIZONA-22) CONTAINING N-ACETYLNEURAMINIC ACID, Carbohydrate research, 259(1), 1994, pp. 59-65
The O-specific polysaccharide of S. arizonae O21 was found to contain
2-acetamido-2-deoxy-D-glucose, 2-acetamidino-2,6-dideoxy-L-galactose,
N-acetylneuraminic acid, and O-acetyl groups. On the basis of H-1 and
C-13 NMR studies of the intact and O-deacetylated polysaccharide and o
ligosaccharide fragments obtained by solvolysis with anhydrous hydroge
n fluoride, partial methanolysis and partial hydrolysis, it was conclu
ded that the O-specific polysaccharide has the following structure: [G
RAPHICS] hexa-, nona-, and dodeca-saccharides.
