Heterogeneity of the rhamnomannans from one strain of the human pathogen Sporothrix schenckii determined by 13C nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy.
The synthesis of different rhamnomannans in a strain of Sporothrix schenckii (1099.12) was shown by use of 13C nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. Fractionation of a polysaccharide preparation from cells grown at 25 degrees C provided a neutral monorhamnosyl rhamnomannan and an acidic rhamnomannan containing 4-O-substituted glucuronic acid units and also (1 leads to 2)-linked dirhamnosyl side chains.
