The cell wall of Streptococcus mitis biovar 1 strain SK137 contains the C-polysaccharide known as the common antigen of a closely related species Streptococcus pneumoniae, and a teichoic acid-like polysaccharide with a unique structure. The two polysaccharides are different entities and could be partially separated by gel chromatography. The structures of the two polysaccharides were determined by chemical methods and by NMR spectroscopy. The teichoic acid-like polymer has a heptasaccharide phosphate repeating unit with the following structure: The structure neither contains ribitol nor glycerol phosphate as classical teichoic acids do, thus we have used the expression teichoic acid-like for this polysaccharide. The following structure of the C-polysaccharide repeating unit was established: where AAT is 2-acetamido-4-amino-2,4, 6-trideoxy-D-galactose. It has a carbohydrate backbone identical to that of one of the two structures of C-polysaccharide previously identified in S. pneumoniae. C-polysaccharide of S. mitis is characterized by the presence, in each repeating unit, of two residues of phosphocholine and both galactosamine residues in the N-acetylated form. Immunochemical analysis showed that C-polysaccharide constitutes the Lancefield group O antigen. Studies using mAbs directed against the backbone and against the phosphocholine moiety of the C-polysaccharide revealed several different patterns of these epitopes among 95 S. mitis and Streptococcus oralis strains tested and the exclusive presence of the group O antigen in the majority of S. mitis biovar 1 strains.  相似文献

Streptococcus mitis strain SK598, which represents a subgroup of biovar 1, possesses a unique variant of the C-polysaccharide found in the cell wall of all strains of Streptococcus pneumoniae and in some strains of S. mitis. This new variant lacks the choline methyl groups in contrast to the previously characterized forms of C-polysaccharide, which all contain one or two choline residues per repeat. The following structure of the repeating unit of the SK598 polysaccharide was established: where AAT is 2-acetamido-4-amino-2,4,6-trideoxy-d-galactose. This structure is identical to the double choline-substituted form of C-polysaccharide, except that it is substituted with ethanolamine instead of choline. This extends the number of recognized C-polysaccharide variants to four.  相似文献

The antigenic polysaccharide was obtained from the cell wall of Eubacterium saburreum strain T15 by trypsin digestion followed by gel permeation and ion-exchange chromatography. Its structure was determined using acid hydrolysis, methylation analysis, and 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopy. It contained L-threo-pent-2-ulose (Xul), D-fucose (Fuc), and D-glycero-D-galacto-heptose (Hep) in 2:3:3 ratio. Methylation analysis indicated an octasaccharide repeating-unit containing five branches. The 1H and 13C signals in NMR spectra of the sugar residues were assigned by COSY, HOHAHA, and HMQC 2D experiments, and the sequence of sugar residues in the repeating unit was determined by NOESY and HMBC experiments. The polysaccharide also contains two O-acetyl groups in the repeating unit, located on the Hep residue. The repeating structure can be written as: [see text for equation]. This is a novel structure in bacterial cell-wall polysaccharides from Gram-positive bacteria.  相似文献

The structure of the antigenic O-polysaccharide (O-PS) of the lipopolysaccharide (LPS) produced by the enterohemorrhagic strain of Escherichia coli O48:H21 (EHEC) has been elucidated. The O-PS obtained by mild acid hydrolysis of the LPS had [alpha]D +95 (water) and was composed of L-rhamnose (L-Rha), D-galactose (D-Gal), 2-amino-2-deoxy-D-glucose (D-GlcN), 2-amino-2-deoxy-D-galactose (D-GalN), and D-galacturonic acid (D-GalA) (1:1:1:1:1). From the results of methylation analysis, mass spectrometry, 2D NMR, and DOC-PAGE, the O-PS was shown to be a high molecular mass polymer of a repeating pentasaccharide unit having the structure: [structure: see text]. The D-Gal pA non-reducing end groups in the O-PS were partially O-acetylated (approximately 30%) at the O-2 and O-3 positions and the degree of acetylation was variable from batch to batch cell production.  相似文献

A teichoic acid-like O-polysaccharide was isolated by mild acid degradation of the lipopolysaccharide (LPS) of Escherichia coli O29. The O-polysaccharide and an oligosaccharide obtained by dephosphorylation of the O-polysaccharide were studied by sugar analysis along with 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy. The following structure of the branched oligosaccharide repeating unit, containing five monosaccharide residues and glycerol 1-phosphate (D-Gro-1-P), was established: [carbohydrate structure: see text].  相似文献

A water-soluble glucan was obtained from the fruit bodies of an edible mushroom, Pleurotus sajor-caju, by hot water extraction, ethanol precipitation, dialysis, and Sepharose 6B gel filtration. On the basis of total hydrolysis, methylation analysis, periodate oxidation, and NMR studies ((1)H, (13)C, DQF-COSY, TOCSY, NOESY, and HSQC), the structure of the repeating unit of the glucan is determined as [carbohydrate structure: see text].  相似文献

The structure of the O-antigen polysaccharide (PS) from Escherichia coli O176 has been determined. Component analysis together with 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy was employed to elucidate the structure. Inter-residue correlations were determined by 1H, 1H NOESY and 1H, 13C heteronuclear multiple-bond correlation experiments. The PS is composed of tetrasaccharide repeating units with the following structure: [Formula: see text] Cross-peaks of low intensity from alpha-linked mannopyranosyl residues were present in the 1H, 1H TOCSY NMR spectra and further analysis of these showed that they originate from the terminal part of the polysaccharide. Consequently, the biological repeating unit has a 3-substituted N-acetyl-d-galactosamine residue at its reducing end. The repeating unit of the E. coli O176 O-antigen is similar to those from E. coli O17 and O77, thereby explaining the reported cross-reactivities between the strains, and identical to that of Salmonella cerro (O:6, 14, 18).  相似文献

The structure of the pneumococcal common antigen, C-polysaccharide, from a noncapsulated pneumococcal strain, CSR SCS2, was studied using 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR and 31P-NMR spectroscopy. The dependence of NMR chemical shifts on the variation in pD was also studied. It was established that the C-polysaccharide is composed of a backbone of tetrasaccharide-ribitol repeating units that are linked to each other by a phosphodiester linkage between position 5 of a D-ribitol residue and position 6 of a beta-D-glucopyranosyl residue. The polysaccharide is substituted with one residue of phosphocholine at position 6 of the 4-substituted 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-alpha-D-galactopyranosyl residue. Both galactosamine residues in the polysaccharide are N-acetylated. O)-P-Cho | 6 6)-beta-D-Glcp-(1-->3)-alpha-AATp-(1-->4)-alpha-D-GalpNAc-(1-->3)- bet a-D-GalpNAc-(1-->1)-D-ribitol-5-P-(O--> where AAT is 2-acetamido-4-amino-2,4,6-trideoxy-D-galactose and Cho is choline. This structure differs, concerning phosphocholine substituents and N-acetylation, from those reported previously for pneumococcal C-polysaccharide [Jennings, H.J., Lugowski, C. & Young, N.M. (1980) Biochemistry 19, 4712-4719; Fischer, W., Behr, T., Hartmann, R., Peter-Katalinic, J. & Egge, H. (1993) Eur. J. Biochem. 215, 851-857; Kulakowska, M., Brisson, J.-R., Griffith, D.W., Young, N.M. & Jennings, H.J. (1993) Can. J. Chem. 71, 644-648]. The structures of the C-polysaccharides present in three pneumococcal types were also examined. They contain one (in 18B) or two (in 32F and 32A) phosphocholine residues in the repeating unit. The degree of substitution was not determined. The backbone of all examined C-polysaccharides was identical and in all cases both galactosamine residues appeared to be N-acetylated.  相似文献

The O-antigen of the lipopolysaccharide from Escherichia coli O166 has been determined by component analysis together with 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopy techniques. The polysaccharide has pentasaccharide repeating units consisting of D-glucose (1), D-galactose (2) and N-acetyl-D-galactosamine (2) with the following structure: [STRUCTURE: SEE TEXT]. In the 1H NMR, spectrum resonances of low intensity were observed. Further analysis of these showed that they originate from the terminal part of the polysaccharide, thereby revealing that the repeating unit has a 3-substituted N-acetyl-D-galactosamine residue at its reducing end.  相似文献

Insoluble precipitates between C-reactive protein and pneumococcal C-polysaccharide were solubilized by fresh but not heat-inactivated human serum. Solubilization was dependent on the C-reactive protein to C-polysaccharide ratio and the serum concentration and proceeded optimally at 37 degrees C. On 12 to 30% sucrose density gradients solubilized complexes sedimented as a broad peak between the 7S region and the bottom of the tube. In C2-deficient human serum, solubilization was delayed by 30 min and then proceeded at a slow rate. Immunoprecipitation experiments indicated that C3, C4, C5, and to a lesser extent C1q were deposited on solubilized complexes. After dissociating solubilized complexes with EDTA, a considerable percentage of C-polysaccharide coprecipitated with C3, C4, and C5, whereas C-reactive protein coprecipitated with only C3. SDS-PAGE analysis of solubilized precipitates indicated the formation of covalent complexes between fragments of C3 and both C-polysaccharide and C-reactive protein.  相似文献

Identification of a capsular polysaccharide from Moraxella bovis   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
The bacterium Moraxella bovis is the causative agent of an economically important disease of cattle: Infectious Bovine Keratoconjunctivitis (IBK), otherwise known as pinkeye. Little is known regarding the structure of the carbohydrates produced by M. bovis. The structure of a capsular polysaccharide from M. bovis (strain Mb25) has been determined using NMR and MS analysis. From these data it is concluded that the polysaccharide is composed of the unmodified chondroitin disaccharide repeat unit.  相似文献

Edwardsiella tarda, a Gram-negative bacterium, is an important cause of hemorrhagic septicemia in fish and also of gastro- and extraintestinal infections in humans. The lipopolysaccharide produced by the fish pathogenic strain E. tarda MT 108 was isolated and the structure of its antigenic O-polysaccharide component determined by the application of chemical analyses, high-resolution 1D and 2D nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, and mass spectrometry. The polysaccharide was found to be a polymer of a repeating pentasaccharide unit composed of 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-D-glucose (D-GlcNAc), 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-D-galactose (D-GalNAc), D-galactose (D-Gal), L-rhamnose (L-Rha), D-galacturonic acid (D-GalA) and (2S,3R)-threonine (1:1:1:1:1:1) having the structure: [structure: see text].  相似文献

The structure of the O-antigenic polysaccharide (PS) from the enteroaggregative Escherichia coli strain 522/C1 has been determined. Component analysis and (1)H and (13)C NMR spectroscopy techniques were used to elucidate the structure. Inter-residue correlations were determined by (1)H,(1)H-NOESY and (1)H,(13)C-heteronuclear multiple-bond correlation experiments. The PS is composed of pentasaccharide repeating units with the following structure: [ structure: see text]. Analysis of NMR data reveals that on average the PS consists of four repeating units and indicates that the biological repeating unit contains an N-acetylgalactosamine residue at its reducing end. Serotyping of the E. coli strain 522/C1 showed it to be E. coli O 178:H7. Determination of the structure of the O-antigen PS of the international type strain from E. coli O 178:H7 showed that the two polysaccharides have identical repeating units. In addition, this pentasaccharide repeating unit is identical to that of the capsular polysaccharide from E. coli O9:K 38, which also contains O-acetyl groups.  相似文献

The well-known immologically active component of pneumococci, C-polysaccharide, is a teichoic acid that can be isolated from the cell walls and purified by Sephadex and ion-exchange chromatography. Further details of the structure of C-teichoic acid were established by chemical degradation, including hydrolysis in acid and alkali, treatment with HF, periodate oxidation and methylation. In addition, the use of 13C n.m.r. has confirmed some of these structural features and resulted in a proposal for the order of substituents, the location of positions of substitution and the configuration of anomeric centres in the repeating unit of the polymer.  相似文献

An acidic O-specific polysaccharide was obtained by mild acid degradation of the Shewanella algae strain BrY lipopolysaccharide and was found to contain L-rhamnose, 2-acetamido-4-[D-3-hydroxybutyramido)]-2,4,6-trideoxy-D-glucose (D-BacNAc4NHbu), and 2-amino-2,6-dideoxy-L-galactose, N-acylated by the 4-carboxyl group of L-malic acid (L-malyl-(4-->2)-alpha-L-FucN) in the ratio 2:1:1. 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy was applied to the intact polysaccharide, and the following structure of the repeating unit was established:-3)-alpha-D-BacNAc4NHbu-(1-->3)-alpha-L-Rha-(1-->2)-alpha-L-Rha-(1-->2)-L-malyl-(4-->2)-alpha-L-FucN-(1-. The repeating unit includes linkage via the residue of malic acid, reported here for the first time as a component of bacterial polysaccharides.  相似文献

A water-soluble polysaccharide was isolated from the aqueous extract of the stem of Lagenaria siceraria. The polysaccharide was found to be constituted of methyl d-galacturonate, 2-O-methyl-D-xylose, and d-xylose in a ratio of 1:1:1. On the basis of total acid hydrolysis, methylation analysis, periodate oxidation, NMR studies ((1)H, (13)C, 2D-COSY, TOCSY, NOESY, HSQC, and HMBC), and MALDI-TOF MS analysis, the structure of the repeating unit of the polysaccharide is determined as.  相似文献
