✦ Synopsis


The structure of the capsular polysaccharide (S5) elaborated by Streptococcus pneumoniae type 5 has been investigated by using n.m.r. spectroscopy, methylation analysis, and various specific degradations. It is concluded that the polysaccharide is composed of pentasaccharide repeating-units having the following structure:

The structure of the capsular polysaccharide from Streptococcus pneumoniae type 2 has been reinvestigated, specific degradations and n.m.r. spectroscopy being the main methods used. It is concluded that the polysaccharide is composed of hexasaccharide repeating-units having the following structure,

The capsular polysaccharide from Streptococcus pneumoniae Type 23 (S-23) was found to contain D-galactose, D-glucose, L-rhamnose, glycerol, and phosphorus in the ratios of 1: 1: 2:0.6: 1. Methylation analysis provided information about the linkages of the different sugar units. The sequence of the d

It was of interest to study the pneumococcal polysaccharides containing D-galactofuranosyl residues, because, in most cases, such residues have been found to be immunodeterminant'. By trial experiments, it was found that the polysaccharide from Streptococcus pneumoniae type 20 (S-20) contains D-gala
