2-O-(beta-D-glucuronyl)-7-O-(2-amino-2-deoxy-alpha-D-glucopyranosyl)-L-glycero-D-manno-heptose: a constituent of the Bordetella pertussis endotoxin.
The presence of bound D-glucuronic acid in the endotoxin of Bordetella pertussis was demonstrated. The branched chain trisaccharide named in the title was isolated after hydrolysis of the endotoxin with 3 M HCl for 2 h at 100 degrees C. Its structure was established by chemical and enzymic degradation.
