The exopolysaccharide produced by the bacterium Alteromonas sp. strain 1644 originating from deep sea hydrothermal vents was shown to contain a novel glucuronic acid derivatives: 3-O-[(R)-1-carboxyethyl]-D-glucuronic acid. The structure of this compound was established on the basis of mass spectrome
Branchipolynoe symmytilida and B. seepensis are two scaleworms (Polychaeta; Polynoidae) living commensally in the mantle cavity of deep-sea hydrothermal vent and cold-seep mussels. In contrast with littoral members of this family, the two species exhibit a large amount of extracellular hemoglobin (H
