Title

Abstract

Two polysaccharides were isolated from Escherichia coli O12, the major being identified as the O12-antigen and the minor as the K5-antigen. The polysaccharides were studied by sugar analysis, Smith degradation, and one- and two-dimensional (1)H and (13)C NMR spectroscopy. As a result, the following structure of the O12-polysaccharide was elucidated, which, to our knowledge, has not been hitherto found in bacterial carbohydrates: -->2)-beta-d-Glcp-(1-->6)-alpha-d-GlcpNAc-(1-->3)-alpha-l-FucpNAc-(1-->3)-beta-d-GlcpNAc-(1-->. The -->4)-beta-d-GlcpA-(1-->4)-alpha-d-GlcpNAc-(1--> structure established for the K5-polysaccharide (heparosan) is previously known. Functions of genes in the O-antigen biosynthesis gene cluster of E. coli O12 were assigned by comparison with sequences in the available databases and found to be consistent with the O12-polysaccharide structure.
