The O-specific polysaccharide was isolated from the lipopolysaccharide of Cobetia pacifica KMM 3879(T) and studied by chemical methods along with (1)H and (13)C NMR spectroscopy, including 1D TOCSY and 2D (1)H, (1)H-COSY, ROESY, (1)H, (13)C-HSQC, HMBC, H2BC and HMQC-TOCSY experiments. The following new structure of the sulfated O-polysaccharide from the C. pacifica KMM 3879(T) containing rhamnose (Rha), glucose (Glc), and galactose (Gal) was established: where R is -SO3H.
Keywords: Cobetia pacifica; Marine bacterium; O-Specific polysaccharide; Sulfate.
