The O-chain structure from the LPS of the bacterium Naxibacter alkalitolerans YIM 31775T

The O-chain polysaccharide of the lipopolysaccharide from the bacterium Naxibacter alkalitolerans strain YIM 31775T 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:Figure optionsDownload as PowerPoint slidewhere HBu is hydroxy-butanoyl.
