Abstract: | Gas chromatography-mass spectrometric identification of partially methylated aminosugars has been developed: (a) various kinds of O-methylated 2-deoxy-2-(N-methyl)-acetamidohexitols were prepared from partially O-(1-methoxy)-ethylated 2-deoxy-2-acetamidohexoses, and their gas chromatography-mass spectrometric patterns were determined; (b) permethylated glycolipids gave a satisfactory yield of 2-deoxy-2-N-methyl-amidohexoses by acetolysis with 0.5 n sulfuric acid in 95% acetic acid, followed by aqueous hydrolysis; (c) the resulting partially methylated aminosugars and neutral sugars were analyzed after borohydride reduction and acetylation according to the procedure of Lindberg and associates (Björndal, Lindberg and Svennson, 1967; Björndal, Hellerqvist, Lindberg and Svensson, 1970).This method was successfully applied to analysis of aminosugar linkages in blood group B-active ceramide pentasaccharide from rabbit erythrocytes and in Forssman antigen of equine spleen. The structure of blood group B-active glycolipid of rabbit erythrocyte was found to be Galα1 → 3Galβ1 → 4G1cNAcβ1 → 3Ga11 → 4Glc → Cer, and that of Forssman antigen to be GaNAcα1 → 3GalNAcβ1 → 3Galα1 → 4Ga11 → 4Glc → Cer. |
