Abstract
An acidic O-specific polysaccharide (PS) of the agar-digesting bacterium Shewanella japonica with the type strain KMM 3299T was obtained by mild acid hydrolysis of the lipopolysaccharide. The polysaccharide was studied by component analysis, methylation analysis, 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy, including 2D NMR experiments. The PS was determined to have the following structure involving three unusual amino sugars:→3)-α-d- Fucp4NAc-(1→4)-α-d-GalpA-(1→3)-α-l-FucpNAc-(1→3) -β-d-QuipNAc4NAc-(1→
