Structural studies on the O-specific side-chains of the cell-wall lipopolysaccharide from Escherichia coli O 75.
The structure of the O-specific side-chains of the cell-wall lipopolysaccharide of Escherichia coli O 75 has been investigated, using methylation analysis and Smith degradation as the principal methods. The O-specific side-chain was found to be composed of a tetrasaccharide repeating-unit of the following structure: (see article)
