Determination of the structure of a fucose-containing trisaccharide monophosphate isolated from human pregnancy urine.
A new acidic oligosaccharide, isolated from the urine of a pregnant woman by gel filtration and ion-exchange chromatography, was shown on the basis of sugar analysis, methylation analysis, exo-glycosidase digestion, e.i.-m.s., f.a.b.-m.s., and n.m.r. spectroscopy to have the following structure: (Formula: see text).
