Indigofera Spicata

A galactomannan, isolated in 3.2% yield from the seeds of Indigofera spicata (Leguminosae), has been shown to consist of D-galactose and D- mannose in the ratio of 1 : 1.82. End group determination by methylation showed 35.5%, in excellent agreement with the result revealed by the periodate method. Partial acid hydrolysis, indicated that the galactose was linked a to the 6-position of the mannose units. The polysaccharide would appear to contain a linear backbone of (1→4) β-D-manno-pyranose units with side-chains of α-D-galactopyranose units attached to C6 of approximately five out of every nine D-mannopyranose units.

An extracellular acidic polysaccharide, elaborated by Bacilluspolymyxa, was composed of D-glucose, D-mannose, D-galactose, and D-glucuronic acid (approximate molar ratio of 4:3:1:1). Methylation and fragmentation analysis by partial acid hydrolysis indicated that the polysaccharide had a complicated, highly branched structure, consisting mainly of β(1 → 3) and (1 → 4) D-glycosidic linkages. The backbone chain containing D-glucose, D-mannose, and D-glucuronic acid residues is attached at the C-4, C-3, and C-4 positions, respectively, one out of every three glucose residues being substituted at the C-2 position to form two kinds of branches at the C-2 and C-4 positions, with side chains of single or a few carbohydrate units that are terminated by D-glucose and (or) D-mannose residues. Keywords: acidic polysaccharide, Bacilluspolymyxa.

Some of the 6-O-β-D-galactopyranosyl-D-galactose units occurred as side chains as well as in the main body of the molecule.

Peach Gum

The polysaccharide of peach gum, prepared by a partial acid hydrolysis, was degraded by a mixture of extracellular glacanohydrolases of Aspergillus flavus. This way obtained polysaccharide differed from the original one especially by a higher content of D-mannose and a lower content of D-galactose bound by (1 3) glycosidic bonds. The obtained results are discussed from the standpoint of composition of the main and side chains of the native polysaccharide.

Polysaccharide B-1459 is the first bacterial polysaccharide reported to contain pyruvic acid as a constituent. The polysaccharide, isolated as the potassium salt, was shown to be composed of D-glucose, D-mannose, and D-glucuronic acid, acetic acid, and pyruvic acid in the ratio 2.8:3.0:2.0:1.7:0.51–0.63. One-third of the total mannose was released readily as free mannose by graded acid hydrolysis with only a slow loss of the high solution viscosity. The remainder of the mannose was isolated as the acid-stable aldobiouronic acid 2-O-(β-D-glucopyranosyluronic acid)-D-mannose. Partial acid hydrolysis and preparative paper chromatography afforded two higher oligosaccharides: an aldotriouronic acid composed of glucuronic acid β-linked 1,2 to mannose with glucose as the reducing end group, and what appears to be an aldotetraouronic acid composed of glucuronic acid, mannose, and glucose.

A glucuronomannan (AA-4-H, Mw around 4 KDa) was prepared from the fruit bodies of Auricularia auricala by extraction with hot water, deproteination by Sevag reagent, stepwise precipitation with ethanol and partial acid hydrolysis. Monosaccharides analysis revealed that AA-4-H consisted of 91% mannose (Man) and 9% glucuronic acid (GlcA). FT-IR, NMR and methylation analyses indicated that AA-4-H is a branched glucuronomannan. Its main chains are composed of 1, 3-linked α-Man p, side chains are single α-Man p or α-GlcA residues attached to the O-2 and O-6 of Man residues of the main chains. Bioassay indicated that AA-4-H remarkably enhanced B lymphocyte proliferation and increased the production of nitric oxide of macrophages in vitro. Thus, glucuronomannan AA-4-H could be explored as a potential immunostimulation agent.

An acidic polysaccharide has been isolated from the culture medium of T. mesenterica NRRL Y-6158. The heteropolymer contained D-xylose, D-mannose, D-glucuronic acid, and O-acetyl in the molar ratios of 7:5:1:0.7, respectively. Methylation analysis of the heteropolymer indicated that it was essentially a 1 → 3-α-linked mannopyranose backbone having approximately 80% of the backbone units substituted, thus forming a very highly branched structure. The substituents on the backbone were found to be D-glucopyranosyluronic acid end-group, β-linked to the O-2 positions of the mannopyranose units, and 2-O-β-D-linked xylopyranose side-chains, linked both to the O-2 and O-4 positions of the mannopyranose backbone. The methylation analysis suggests that these side-chains are probably two or three xylopyranose units long, although a limited variation in the length of the side-chains is a possibility.

Three lysinonorleucine peptides were isolated from mature porcine aorta elastin after enzymic digestions and partial acid hydrolysis. The structural investigations which were performed suggest that different regions containing lysinonorleucine may exist. The role of this cross-link in mature elastin is discussed.
