The extracellular, water-soluble polysaccharide elaborated by Streptococcus mutans GS-5 contains (1 leads to 6)- and (1 leads to 3,6)-linked alpha-D-glucopyranosyl residues. Its average repeating-unit contains 6 D-glucosyl residues and it is comb-like in structure. The majority of branches consist of only a few D-glucosyl residues, if not one D-glucosyl group.
变形链球菌GS-5产生的细胞外水溶性多糖含有（1→6）-和（1→3,6）-连接的α-D-吡喃葡萄糖基残基。其平均重复单元包含6个D-葡萄糖基残基，结构呈梳状。如果不是一个D-葡萄糖基的话，大多数分支仅由少数几个D-葡萄糖基残基组成。
