Abstract
⺠Thermotolerant acetic acid bacterium, A. tropicalis, produces pellicle polysaccharide to float on a liquid culture surface. ⺠The polysaccharide is capsular polysaccharide (CPS) consisting of glucose/rhamnose/galactose. ⺠The CPS is converted to extracellular polysaccharides (EPS) having different structures by mutations. ⺠We have presented the structures of wild-type CPS and two EPSs of the mutant strains.
