✦ Synopsis
The 0-polysaccharide from k%rio cholerae 0 : 5 has been investigated, using NMR spectroscopy as the main method. Fast atom bombardment mass spectrometry (FABMS) studies of fragments obtained on treatment with anhydrous hydrogen fluoride or methanolic hydrogen chloride gave further structural information. Some structural features were also determined by comparison of nuclear Overhauser enhancement (NOE) contacts with calculated H-H distance in different oligosaccharide models. It is concluded that the O-~lysa~haride has the fobbing structure, in which D-Qui~NAc4NAc is 2,4-dia~tamido-2,4,6-trideo~-D-8lu~se, and D-FucpfNX is 3-amino-3,6-dideoxy-n-galactose acylated with a (R,R)-3-hydroxy-3-methyl-5-oxoproline group. 4 3l-fi-D-Qui~NAc4NAc_(l+ 4)-@-ManpNAcA-(l -+ 3 1 a-D-Fucp3NX I2 Hermansson et al./Carbohydr.
