Synopsis

' C n m r has been employed to probe the molecular conformation and crystal structure of (1+6)-P-~-glucan (pustulan) in the solution, gel, and solid states. CP/MAS Y-nmr spectra recorded for partially crystalline solid pustulan display a resonance near 82 ppm that is absent in solution spectra. The intensity and peak width of this resonance were found to depend on relative crystallinity as determined by x-ray diffraction. CP/ MAS spectra of aqueous pustulan gels also exhibit the 82-ppm resonance, suggesting that the gelation mechanism may involve microcrystalline junction zones. Since the 82-ppm resonance is absent in the CP/MAS spectrum of the (l46)-P-linked dimer gentiobiose, we tentatively conclude the crystal structure of this dimer does not adequately model the yet undetermined structure of pustulan.
