A lipid linked oligosaccharide which contains hexosamine, mannose and glucose.
Previous work showed that liver microsomes catalyze the transfer of glucose from dolichol monophosphate glucose to an endogenous acceptor believed to be a dolichol pyrophosphate derivative of an oligosaccharide. This oligosaccharide has now been prepared on a larger scale so as to permit the determination of its sugars. The purification procedure includes, as a last step, a thin layer chromatography on kieselguhr-silica gel to obviate glucose-containing contaminants. After complete hydrolysis mannose, glucose and a small amount of hexosamine were detected.
