The O-polysaccharide (O-antigen) of Escherichia coli O76 was studied by sugar analysis along with 1D and 2D (1)H,(13)C NMR spectroscopies. The following structure of the linear tetrasaccharide repeating unit was established: →4)-β-D-GlcpA-(1→4)-β-D-GalpNAc3Ac-(1→4)-α-D-GalpNAc-(1→3)-β-D-GalpNAc-(1→. The degree of O-acetylation of 4-substituted β-GalNAc residue is ~70%. The O-antigen gene cluster of E. coli O76 was sequenced. The functions of genes in the O-antigen gene cluster were tentatively assigned by comparison with sequences in the available databases and found to be in full agreement with the E. coli O76 O-antigen structure.
大肠杆菌 O76 的 O-多糖(O-抗原)通过糖分析以及 1D 和 2D(1)H、(13)C NMR 光谱进行了研究。建立了线性四糖重复单元的以下结构:→4)-β-D-GlcpA-(1→4)-β-D-GalpNAc3Ac-(1→4)-α-D-GalpNAc-(1→3)-β-D-GalpNAc-(1→。4 位取代β-GalNAc 残基的 O-乙酰化程度约为 70%。大肠杆菌 O76 的 O-抗原基因簇进行了测序。通过与现有数据库中的序列进行比较,推测 O-抗原基因簇中基因的功能,并与大肠杆菌 O76 O-抗原结构完全一致。
