The capsular polysaccharide (CPS) and the O-side-chain of the lipopolysaccharide (LPS) of Acetobacter methanolicus MB 58/4 (IMET 10945) have been shown to contain the same disaccharide repeating unit, namely, →2)-β-D-Galf-(1→3)-β-D-Galp-(1→. Degradation of the CPS and the LPS with the bacteriophage Acml gave fragments built up of 1-5 repeating units; the octasaccharide preponderated. The phage-associated depolymerase proved to be a β-D-galactofuranoside hydrolase.
