Primary structure of neutral and acidic oligosaccharide-alditols derived from the jelly coat of the Mexican axolotl. Occurrence of oligosaccharides with fucosyl(alpha 1-3)fucosyl(alpha 1-4)-3-deoxy-D-glycero-D-galacto-nonulosonic acid and galactosyl(alpha 1-4)[fucosyl(alpha 1-2)]galactosyl(beta 1-4)-N-acetylglucosamine sequences.
Six major neutral and acidic oligosaccharide-alditols were prepared from the jelly coat of Mexican axolotl eggs. These compounds were demonstrated to contain 3-deoxy-D-glycero-D-galacto-nonulosonic acid (dNloA) and L-fucose (Fuc). The structures of the six major oligosaccharides were established as follows: [sequence: see text]
