Abstract

Halomonas halocynthiae KMM 1376T is a Gram-negative bacterium that has been isolated from gill tissue of the ascidian Halocynthia aurantium. Mild acid hydrolysis of the lipopolysaccharide of H. halocynthiae KMM 1376T afforded an O-polysaccharide, which was studied by sugar analysis and NMR spectroscopy. The following structure of the O-polysaccharide presented as sulfated α-D-mannan was established: →2)-α-D-Manp3,6S-(1→3)-α-D-Manp2Ac(∼71%)6S-(1→3)-α-D-Manp-(1→. Study of biological activity has shown that sulfated α-D-mannan can specifically reduce the cell viability and colony formation of the human breast adenocarcinoma MDA-MB-231 cells in a concentration-dependent manner. In addition, polysaccharide inhibits epidermal growth factor induced neoplastic cell transformation in mouse epidermal JB6 Cl41 cells.
