A novel neutral heteropolysaccharide (DDP-1-D) was purified from hot water extracts of dried stem of Dendrobium densiflorum by DEAE-52 and Sephacryl S-200 High-Resolution Chromatography. The heteropolysaccharide had an average molecular weight about 9440 Da. It was composed mainly of glucose and mannose in the ratio of 3.01:1. Structural features of DDP-1-D were elucidated by a combination of chemical and instrumental techniques, including FT-IR, GC-MS, periodate oxidation-Smith degradation, (1)H and (13)C NMR spectroscopies (including COSY, TOCSY, HSQC, and HMBC spectra).

Structural features of immunologically active polysaccharides from Ganoderma lucidum.

Three polysaccharides, two heteroglycans (PL-1 and PL-4) and one glucan (PL-3), were solubilized from the fruit bodies of Ganoderma lucidum and isolated by anion-exchange and gel-filtration chromatography. Their structural features were elucidated by glycosyl residue and glycosyl linkage composition analyses, partial acid hydrolysis, acetolysis, periodate oxidation, 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopy, and ESI-MS experiments. The data obtained indicated that PL-1 had a backbone consisting of 1,4-linked alpha-D-glucopyranosyl residues and 1,6-linked beta-D-galactopyranosyl residues with branches at O-6 of glucose residues and O-2 of galactose residues, composed of terminal glucose, 1,6-linked glucosyl residues and terminal rhamnose. PL-3 was a highly branched glucan composed of 1,3-linked beta-D-glucopyranosyl residues substituted at O-6 with 1,6-linked glucosyl residues. PL-4 was comprised of 1,3-, 1,4-, 1,6-linked beta-D-glucopyranosyl residues and 1,6-linked beta-D-mannopyranosyl residues. These polysaccharides enhanced the proliferation of T- and B-lymphocytes in vitro to varying contents and PL-1 exhibited an immune-stimulating activity in mice.     

Characterization of an acetylated heteroxylan from Eucalyptus globulus Labill

A heteroxylan was isolated from Eucalyptus globulus wood by extraction of peracetic acid delignified holocellulose with dimethyl sulfoxide. Besides (1-->4)-linked beta-D-xylopyranosyl units of the backbone and short side chains of terminal (1-->2)-linked 4-O-methyl-alpha-D-glucuronosyl residues (MeGlcA) in a 1:10 molar ratio, this hemicellulose contained galactosyl and glucosyl units attached at O-2 of MeGlcA originating from rhamnoarabinogalactan and glucan backbones, respectively. About 30% of MeGlcA units were branched at O-2. The O-acetyl-(4-O-methylglucurono)xylan showed an acetylation degree of 0.61, as determined by 1H NMR spectroscopy, and a weight-average molecular weight (M(w)) of about 36 kDa (P=1.05) as revealed from size-exclusion chromatography (SEC) analysis. About half of the beta-D-xylopyranosyl units of the backbone were found as acetylated moieties at O-3 (34 mol%), O-2 (15 mol%) or O-2,3 (6 mol%). Practically, all beta-D-xylopyranosyl units linked at O-2 with MeGlcA residues were 3-O-acetylated (10 mol%).     

Identification, isolation, and structural studies of extracellular polysaccharides produced by Caulobacter crescentus.

Caulobacters are adherent prosthecate bacteria that are members of bacterial biofouling communities in many environments. Investigation of the cell surface carbohydrates produced by two strains of the freshwater Caulobacter crescentus, CB2A and CB15A, revealed a hitherto undetected extracellular polysaccharide (EPS) or capsule. Isolation and characterization of the EPS fractions showed that each strain produced a unique neutral EPS which could not be readily removed from the cell surface by washing. Monosaccharide analysis showed that the main CB2A EPS contained D-glucose, D-gulose, and D-fucose in a ratio of 3:1:1, whereas the CB15A EPS fraction contained D-galactose, D-glucose, D-mannose, and D-fucose in approximately equal amounts. Methylation analysis of the main CB2A EPS showed the presence of terminal glucose and gulose groups, 3-linked fucosyl, and two 3,4-linked glucosyl units, thus confirming the pentasaccharide repeating unit indicated by 1H nuclear magnetic resonance analysis. Similar studies of the CB15A EPS revealed a tetrasaccharide repeating unit consisting of terminal galactose, 4-linked fucosyl, 3-linked glucosyl, and 3,4-linked mannosyl residues. EPS was not detectable by thin-section electron microscopy techniques, including some methods designed to preserve or enhance capsules, nor was the EPS readily detected on the cell surface by scanning electron microscopy when conventional fixation techniques were used; however, a structure consistent with EPS was revealed when samples were prepared by cryofixation and freeze-substitution methods.     

Immobilization of Chloroplast Photosystems

Highly branched α-glucan molecules exhibit low digestibility for α-amylase and glucoamylase, and abundant in α-(1→3)-, α-(1→6)-glucosidic linkages and α-(1→6)-linked branch points where another glucosyl chain is initiated through an α-(1→3)-linkage. From a culture supernatant of Paenibacillus sp. PP710, we purified α-glucosidase (AGL) and α-amylase (AMY), which were involved in the production of highly branched α-glucan from maltodextrin. AGL catalyzed the transglucosylation reaction of a glucosyl residue to a nonreducing-end glucosyl residue by α-1,6-, α-1,4-, and α-1,3-linkages. AMY catalyzed the hydrolysis of the α-1,4-linkage and the intermolecular or intramolecular transfer of maltooligosaccharide like cyclodextrin glucanotransferase (CGTase). It also catalyzed the transfer of an α-1,4-glucosyl chain to a C3- or C4-hydroxyl group in the α-1,4- or α-1,6-linked nonreducing-end residue or the α-1,6-linked residue located in the other chains. Hence AMY was regarded as a novel enzyme. We think that the mechanism of formation of highly branched α-glucan from maltodextrin is as follows: α-1,6- and α-1,3-linked residues are generated by the transglucosylation of AGL at the nonreducing ends of glucosyl chains. Then AMY catalyzes the transfer of α-1,4-chains to C3- or C4-hydroxyl groups in the α-1,4- or α-1,6-linked residues generated by AGL. Thus the concerted reactions of both AGL and AMY are necessary to produce the highly branched α-glucan from maltodextrin.

Structural elucidation of a novel fucogalactan that contains 3-O-methyl rhamnose isolated from the fruiting bodies of the fungus, Hericium erinaceus

A new heteropolysaccharide, HEPF3, was isolated from the fruiting bodies of Hericium erinaceus. HEPF3 has a molecular weight of 1.9 x 10(4) Da and is composed of fucose and galactose in a ratio of 1:4.12. Compositional analysis, methylation analysis, together with 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy established that HEPF3 consists of a branched pentasaccharide repeating unit with the following structure: [structure: see text]. HEPF3 also contains a minor proportion of 3-O-methylrhamnose that is thought to terminate the polymer main chain.     

Structural analysis of enzyme-resistant isomaltooligosaccharides reveals the elongation of α-(1→3)-linked branches in Weissella confusa dextran

Weissella confusa VTT E-90392 is an efficient producer of a dextran that is mainly composed of α-(1→6)-linked D-glucosyl units and very few α-(1→3) branch linkages. A mixture of the Chaetomium erraticum endodextranase and the Aspergillus niger α-glucosidase was used to hydrolyze W. confusa dextran to glucose and a set of enzyme-resistant isomaltooligosaccharides. Two of the oligosaccharides (tetra- and hexasaccharide) were isolated in pure form and their structures elucidated. The tetrasaccharide had a nonreducing end terminal α-(1→3)-linked glucosyl unit (α-D-Glcp-(1→3)-α-D-Glcp-(1→6)-α-D-Glcp-(1→6)-α-D-Glc), whereas the hexasaccharide had an α-(1→3)-linked isomaltosyl side group (α-D-Glcp-(1→6)[α-D-Glcp-(1→6)-α-D-Glcp-(1→3)]-α-D-Glcp-(1→6)-α-D-Glcp-(1→6)-α-D-Glc). A mixture of two isomeric oligosaccharides was also obtained in the pentasaccharide fraction, which were identified as (α-D-Glcp-(1→6)-α-D-Glcp-(1→3)-α-D-Glcp-(1→6)-α-D-Glcp-(1→6)-α-D-Glc) and (α-D-Glcp-(1→6)[α-D-Glcp-(1→3)]-α-D-Glcp-(1→6)-α-D-Glcp-(1→6)-α-D-Glc). The structures of the oligosaccharides indicated that W. confusa dextran contains both terminal and elongated α-(1→3)-branches. This is the first report evidencing the presence of elongated branches in W. confusa dextran. The (1)H and (13)C NMR spectroscopic data on the enzyme-resistant isomaltooligosaccharides with α-(1→3)-linked glucosyl and isomaltosyl groups are published here for the first time.     

Cell surface receptors for lymphokines. II. Studies on the carbohydrate composition of the MIF receptor on macrophages using synthetic saccharides and plant lectins.

The carbohydrate composition of the surface receptor for macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) on guinea pig macrophages has been studied by examining the interaction of MIF with different saccharides and by testing the ability of plant lectins with known saccharide binding affinities to bind to macrophages and block their response to MIF. Comparison of the effectiveness of a variety of natural and synthetic mono- and disaccharides in inhibiting MIF activity in lymphocyte supernatants revealed that inhibitory activity was confined to natural 5-methylpentose sugars (l-fucose > l-rhamnose = 6-deoxy-d-glucose) and synthetic saccharides containing α-fucosyl residues. Observations on the MIF inhibitory activity of synthetic fucosyl glycosides containing fucosyl residues of defined configuration at terminal and subterminal positions indicate that MIF interacts preferentially with terminal α-l-fucopyranosyl residues and does not recognize subterminal saccharides. Studies with disaccharides containing α-(1 → 2)-, α-(1 → 3), and α-(1 → 6)-linked l-fucosyl residues failed to reveal preferential interaction of MIF with any one linkage configuration. Incubation of macrophages before exposure to MIF with lectins that bind to terminal fucosyl residues (Lotus tetragonolobus and Ulex europaeus_I, agglutinins) rendered them unresponsive to MIF but lectins which bind to nonterminal fucosyl residues and to other saccharides had no effect. The role of fucosyl residues in the binding of MIF by macrophages is discussed with reference to the possible composition of the MIF receptor and the role of fucose-containing glycolipids as receptors for this lymphokine.
