Studies on the uronic acid-containing glycoproteins of Fusarium sp. M7-1: IV. Isolation and identification of four novel oligosaccharide units derived from the acidic polysaccharide chain.
Four novel oligosaccharide units were isolated from the acetolysis products of the acidic polysaccharide chain derived from the glycoproteins of Fusarium sp. M7-1. Their chemical structures were resolved mainly by 1H-NMR spectrometry in combination with methylation analysis and mass spectrometry. The results indicate that these oligosaccharide units originated from the side chains, GlcNAc alpha 1-->4GlcA alpha 1-->2(GlcNac alpha 1-->4)GlcA alpha 1-->2Gal, GlcNAc alpha 1-->4GlcA alpha 1-->2(GlcNAc alpha 1-->4)GlcA alpha 1-->2(GlcNac alpha 1-->4)GlcA alpha 1-->2Gal, ChN<--P--> 6Man beta 1-->4GlcA alpha 1-->2Gal, and Man beta 1-->2(ChN<--P-->6)Man beta 1-->4GlcA alpha 1-->2Gal linked together with the other units reported previously [Jikibara et al. (1992) J. Biochem. 111, 236-243] through beta 1-->6galactofuranoside linkages in the acidic polysaccharide chain.
