Occurrence of 3-O-( -D-glucopyranosyluronic acid)-D-galactose in the capsular polysaccharide of Klebsiella K-type 20.
Partial hydrolysis and methylation studies have been used to show that the capsular polysaccharide of Klebsiella K-type 20 is composed of a main chain of d-mannose and d-galactose units with the aldobiouronic acid attached as a side chain to d-mannose
