A novel acidic heteropolysaccharide (TAPA1) was purified from hot water extracts of Tremella aurantialba fruiting bodies by DEAE-Sepharose Fast Flow and Sephacryl S-500 High-Resolution Chromatography. The heteropolysaccharide had a molecular weight of ca. 1350000 Da, and a carbohydrate content estimated to be ~98.7% by the phenol-sulfuric acid method. It was composed mainly of d-mannose, d-xylose, and d-glucuronic acid in the ratio of ca. 5:4:1, along with trace amounts of d-galacturonic acid and d-glucose. Monosaccharide compositional analysis and GC-MS of methylated derivatives, combined with 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopies (including COSY, TOCSY, NOESY, HSQC, and HMBC spectra), revealed TAPA1 to consist of an α-(1→3)-linked mannopyranosyl backbone, partially substituted at position 4 with xylose side chains, and at position 2 with side chains composed of either xylose, mannose, and glucuronic acid or of xylose and mannose. Bioactivity testing showed that TAPA1 stimulated the proliferation of mouse spleen lymphocytes in vitro.

Methods: 13C NMR, 1H NMR, NMR-2D, methylation, IR, GC-MS, ELISA, acid hydrolysis, HPAEC-PAD, extraction, acetylation, reduction, HPGPC, phenol-sulfuric acid assay, Gerwig method, evaporation, refractometry, spleen cell proliferation assay
Biological activity: TAPA1 stimulated the proliferation of mouse spleen lymphocytes in vitro in a dose-dependent manner.
Comments, role: internal HOD was used as a standard in 1H NMR experiments. The exact structure was not reported; it was assembled by CSDB staff as a motif from four reported fragments; the side chains on 1-3-mannan are distributed statistically. The published 13C NMR spectrum in DSS was shifted 1.6 ppm upfield by CSDB staff to accord to a TMS reference.
