Abstract

The O-chain polysaccharide of the lipopolysaccharide from the bacterium Naxibacter alkalitolerans strain YIM 31775(T) was characterized. The structure was studied by means of chemical analysis and 2D NMR spectroscopy and shown to be built up by the following tetrasaccharide repeating unit: -->3)-alpha-D-FucpNAc-(1-->2)-beta-D-Quip3NHBu-(1-->2)-alpha-D-Rhap-(1-->)-beta-D-Galp-(1--> where HBu is hydroxy-butanoyl.
