Fv. Toukach et al., Structure of the O-specific polysaccharide of Proteus mirabilis O16 containing ethanolamine phosphate and ribitol phosphate, CARBOHY RES, 331(2), 2001, pp. 213-218
The O-specific polysaccharide of Proteus,mirabilis O16 was studied by H-1 a
nd C-13 NMR spectroscopy, including 2D COSY, TOCSY, NOESY. H-detected H-1,
C-13 HMQC, HMQC-TOCSY, and H-1 P-31 HMQC experiments, along with chemical m
ethods. The polysaccharide was found to be a ribitol teichoic acid-like pol
ymer having the following structure
