Studies of the primary structure of the capsular polysaccharide from Klebsiella serotype K15.
The capsular polysaccharide of Klebsiella serotype K15 has been investigated mainly by methylation analysis, characterisation of the oligosaccharides obtained by partial acid hydrolysis, periodate oxidation, enzymic degradation, and 1H- and 13C-n.m.r. spectroscopy, and shown to have the hexasaccharide repeating-unit 1. The glycan does not contain any pyruvic acetal or O-acetyl substituents. (formula; see text)
