Structural analysis of lipopolysaccharide oligosaccharide epitopes expressed by non-typeable Haemophilus influenzae strain 176
Carbohydrate Research 337(5) (2002) 409-420
 

The structure of the lipopolysaccharide (LPS) from non-typeable Haemophilus influenzae strain 176 has been investigated. Electrospray ionization-mass spectrometry (ESIMS) on O-deacylated LPS (LPS-OH) and core oligosaccharide (OS) samples obtained after mild-acid hydrolysis of LPS provided information on the composition and relative abundance of the glycoforms. ESIMS tandem-mass spectrometry on LPS-OH confirmed the presence of minor sialylated and disialylated glycoforms. Oligosaccharide samples were studied in detail using high-field NMR techniques. It was found that the LPS contains the common inner-core element of H. influenzae, L-α-D-Hepp-(1→2)-[PEtn→6]-L-α-D-Hepp-(1→3)-[β-D-Glcp-(1→4)]-L-α-D-Hepp-(1→5)-[PPEtn→4]-α-Kdop-(2→6)-Lipid A having glycosyl substitution at the O-3 position of the terminal heptose as recently observed for non-typeable H. influenzae strain 486 [Mansson, M.; Bauer, S. H. J.; Hood, D. W.; Richards, J. C.; Moxon, E. R.; Schweda, E. K. H., Eur. J. Biochem. 2001, 268, 2148-- 2159]. The following LPS structures were identified as the major glycoforms, the most significant being indicated with an asterisk (glycoforms are partly substituted with Gly at the terminal Hep):

Lipopolysaccharide, Haemophilus, Haemophilus influenzae, Phosphocholine, 5-N-Acetylneuraminic acid, CE-ESIMS/MS
