European Journal of Biochemistry 269(8) (2002) 2194-2203
The structure of the lipopolysaccharide (LPS) of Pseudomonas aeruginosa immunotype 1 was studied after mild acid and strong alkaline degradations by MS and NMR spectroscopy. Three types of LPS molecules were found, including those with an unsubstituted glycoform 1 core (A) or an isomeric glycoform 2 core substituted with one O-polysaccharide repeating unit (B) or with a long-chain O-polysaccharide. Therefore, of two core glycoforms, only glycoform 2 accepts the O-polysaccharide. In the structures A and B, Kdo, Hep, Hep7Cm, GalNAcAN3Ac, GalNFoAN, QuiNAc, GalNAla represent 3-deoxy-d-manno-octulosonic acid, l-glycero-d-manno-heptose, 7-O-carbamoyl-l-glycero-d-manno-heptose, 2-acetamido-3-O-acetyl-2-deoxygalacturonamide, 2-formamido-2-deoxygalacturonamide, 2-acetamido-2,6-dideoxyglucose and 2-(l-alanylamino)-2-deoxygalactose, respectively; all sugars are in the pyranose form and have the d configuration unless otherwise stated. One or more phosphorylation sites may be occupied by diphosphate groups. In a minority of the LPS molecules, an O-acetyl group is present in the outer core region at unknown position. The site and the configuration of the linkage between the O-polysaccharide and the core and the structure of the O-polysaccharide repeating unit were defined in P. aeruginosa immunotype 1. The QuiNAc residue linked to the Rha residue of the core was found to have the beta configuration, whereas in the interior repeating units of the O-polysaccharide this residue is in the α-configuration. The data obtained are in accordance with the initiation of biosynthesis of the O-polysaccharide of P. aeruginosa O6, which is closely related to immunotype 1, by transfer of d-QuiNAc-1-P to undecaprenyl phosphate followed by synthesis of the repeating O-antigen tetrasaccharide

Carbohydrate Research 338(17) (2003) 1801-1806
A phosphorylated core-lipid A backbone oligosaccharide that carries a disaccharide remainder of the first O-antigen repeating unit was derived by strong alkaline degradation following mild hydrazinolysis of the lipopolysaccharide of Pseudomonas aeruginosa immunotype 4 (serogroup O-1). The structure of the oligosaccharide was determined using ESI MS and NMR spectroscopy and it was demonstrated that 2-acetamido-2,6-dideoxy-D-glucose is the first monosaccharide of the O-polysaccharide that is linked to the LPS core. These data define the structure of the biological repeating unit of the O-antigen

FEMS Immunology and Medical Microbiology 46(1) (2006) 85-99
Highly phosphorylated core oligosaccharides and those substituted with one O-antigen repeating unit were obtained by mild acid degradation or strong alkaline hydrolysis of lipopolysaccharide samples from 23 reference strains representing all Pseudomonas aeruginosa O-serogroups. Studies by high-resolution electrospray ionization mass spectrometry and two-dimensional NMR spectroscopy revealed both conserved and variable structural features of the lipopolysaccharides of various O-serogroups. The upstream terminal saccharide of the O-antigen, which contributes most to the immunospecificity of the bacteria, was defined in 11 from a total of 13 O-serogroups. The data obtained link together the known biosynthesis pathways, genetics and serology of the P. aeruginosa lipopolysaccharide.

Kocincova D, Hao Y, Vinogradov E, Lam JS "Evidence that WapB is an 1,2 glucosyltransferase of Pseudomonas aeruginosa involved in LPS outer core biosynthesis" -
Journal of Bacteriology 193(11) (2011) 2708-2716
Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an important opportunistic pathogen infecting debilitated individuals. One of the major virulence factors elaborated by P. aeruginosa is lipopolysaccharide (LPS), which is composed of lipid A, core oligosaccharide (OS) and O-antigen polysaccharide. The core OS is divided into inner and outer regions. Although the structure of the outer core OS has been elucidated, the functions and mechanisms of the glycosyltransferases involved in core OS biogenesis is currently unknown. Here, we show that a previously uncharacterised gene pa1014 is involved in outer core biosynthesis and we propose to rename this gene as wapB. We constructed a chromosomal mutant wapB::Gm in strain PAO1 (O5 serotype) background. Characterization of the LPS from the mutant by Western immunoblotting showed a lack of reactivity to PAO1 outer core-specific monoclonal antibody (MAb) 5c-101. The chemical structure of the core OS of the wapB mutant was elucidated using nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and mass spectrometry techniques and revealed that the core OS of the wapB mutant lacked the terminal β-1,2-linked-D-glucose residue. Complementation of the mutant with wapB in trans restored the core structure to one that is identical to the wildtype. Eleven of the twenty P. aeruginosa IATS serotypes produce LPS that lack the terminal D-glucose residue (Glc(IV)). Interestingly, expression of wapB in each of these eleven serotypes lacking Glc(IV) has modified each of their outer core OS structures, which became reactive to MAb 5c101 in Western immunoblotting suggesting the presence of a terminal D-glucose in these core OS structures. Our results strongly suggested that wapB encodes an 1,2-glucosyltransferase.

Molecular Immunology 120 (2020) 74-82
To understand the role of human natural IgM known as antibodies against the carbohydrate epitope Tn, the antibodies were isolated using GalNAcα-Sepharose affinity chromatography, and their specificity was profiled using microarrays (a glycan array printed with oligosaccharides and bacterial polysaccharides, as well as a glycopeptide array), flow cytometry, and inhibition ELISA. The antibodies bound a restricted number of GalNAcα-terminated oligosaccharides better than the parent monosaccharide, e.g., 6-O-Su-GalNAcα and GalNAcα1-3Galβ1-3(4)GlcNAcβ. The binding with several bacterial polysaccharides that have no structural resemblance to the affinity ligand GalNAcα was quite unexpected. Given that GalNAcα is considered the key fragment of the Tn antigen, it is surprising that these antibodies bind weakly GalNAcα-OSer and do not bind a wide variety of GalNAcα-OSer/Thr-containing mucin glycopeptides. At the same time, we have observed specific binding to cells having Tn-positive glycoproteins containing similar glycopeptide motifs in a conformationally rigid macromolecule. Thus, specific recognition of the Tn antigen apparently requires that the naturally occurring "anti-Tn" IgM recognize a complex epitope comprising the GalNAcα as an essential component and a fairly long amino acid sequence where the amino acids adjacent to GalNAcα do not contact the antibody paratope; i.e., the antibodies recognize a spatial epitope or a molecular pattern rather than a classical continuous sequence. In addition, we have not found any increase in the binding of natural antibodies when GalNAcα residues were clustered. These results may help in further development of anticancer vaccines based on synthetic Tn constructs.

Biochemistry (Moscow) 68(8) (2003) 918-925
The products of the strong alkaline degradation of the lipopolysaccharide (LPS) of Pseudomonas aeruginosa immunotype 5 were separated by anion-exchange HPLC and studied by electrospray ionization mass spectrometry and NMR spectroscopy. It was found that two major products have the same inner core region and lipid A carbohydrate backbone but different outer core regions. The difference is in the position of a rhamnose residue, which is substituted with either an additional glucose residue or a disaccharide remainder of the degraded O-polysaccharide. The site and the configuration of the linkage between the O-polysaccharide and the core were determined and, together with published data, the structure of the so-called biological repeating unit of the O-antigen was defined. The glycosidic linkage of the 2-acetamido-2,6-dideoxy-D-glucose (N-acetyl-D-quinovosamine) residue is ? when it links the O-polysaccharide to the core and ? when it connects the interior repeating units of the O-polysaccharide to each other

Biochemistry (Moscow) 69(2) (2004) 170-175
The lipopolysaccharide (LPS) of the opportunistic human pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa immunotype 5 was delipidated by mild acid hydrolysis, and the products were separated by high-performance anion-exchange chromatography and analyzed by ESI MS and NMR spectroscopy. LPS species of three types were found, including those with an unsubstituted core and the core substituted with one O-polysaccharide repeating unit or with an O-polysaccharide of a variable number of repeating units. The core region is highly phosphorylated, the major species containing two monophosphate groups and one ethanolamine diphosphate group. Based on these and published data on the O-polysaccharide structure, the full structure of the LPS of P. aeruginosa immunotype 5 was established.

Carbohydrate Research 338(18) (2003) 1895-1905
The lipopolysaccharide of Pseudomonas aeruginosa O-12 was studied by strong alkaline and mild acid degradations and dephosphorylation followed by fractionation of the products by GPC and high-performance anion-exchange chromatography and analyses by ESI FT-MS and NMR spectroscopy. The structures of the lipopolysaccharide core and the O-polysaccharide repeating unit were elucidated and the site and the configuration of the linkage between the O-polysaccharide and the core established. The core was found to be randomly O-acetylated, most O-acetyl groups being located on the terminal rhamnose residue of the outer core region

European Journal of Biochemistry 271(23-24) (2004) 4968-4977
The core structure of the lipopolysaccharide (LPS) isolated from a rough strain of the phytopathogenic bacterium Pseudomonas syringae pv. phaseolicola, GSPB 711, was investigated by sugar and methylation analyses, Fourier transform ion-cyclotron resonance ESI MS, and one- and two-dimensional (1)H-, (13)C- and (31)P-NMR spectroscopy. Strong alkaline deacylation of the LPS resulted in two core-lipid A backbone undecasaccharide pentakisphosphates in the ratio approximately 2.5 : 1, which corresponded to outer core glycoforms 1 and 2 terminated with either l-rhamnose or 3-deoxy-d-manno-oct-2-ulosonic acid (Kdo), respectively. Mild acid degradation of the LPS gave the major glycoform 1 core octasaccharide and a minor truncated glycoform 2 core heptasaccharide, which resulted from the cleavage of the terminal Kdo residues. The inner core of P. syringae is distinguished by a high degree of phosphorylation of l-glycero-d-manno-heptose residues with phosphate, diphosphate and ethanolamine diphosphate groups. The glycoform 1 core is structurally similar but not identical to one of the core glycoforms of the human pathogenic bacterium Pseudomonas aeruginosa. The outer core composition and structure may be useful as a chemotaxonomic marker for the P. syringae group of bacteria, whereas a more conserved inner core structure appears to be representative for the whole genus Pseudomonas

International Journal of Molecular Sciences 22(6) (2021) 3250
Lipopolysaccharide (LPS), the major component of the outer membrane of Gram-negative bacteria, is important for bacterial viability in general and host-pathogen interactions in particular. Negative charges at its core oligosaccharide (core-OS) contribute to membrane integrity through bridging interactions with divalent cations. The molecular structure and synthesis of the core-OS have been resolved in various bacteria including the mammalian pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa. A few core-OS structures of plant-associated Pseudomonas strains have been solved to date, but the genetic components of the underlying biosynthesis remained unclear. We conducted a comparative genome analysis of the core-OS gene cluster in Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato (Pst) DC3000, a widely used model pathogen in plant-microbe interactions, within the P. syringae species complex and to other plant-associated Pseudomonas strains. Our results suggest a genetic and structural conservation of the inner core-OS but variation in outer core-OS composition within the P. syringae species complex. Structural analysis of the core-OS of Pst DC3000 shows an uncommonly high phosphorylation and presence of an O-acetylated sugar. Finally, we combined the results of our genomic survey with available structure information to estimate the core-OS composition of other Pseudomonas species.

The lipopolysaccharide (LPS) of the opportunistic human pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa immunotype 5 was delipidated by mild acid hydrolysis, and the products were separated by high-performance anion-exchange chromatography and analyzed by ESI MS and NMR spectroscopy. LPS species of three types were found, including those with an unsubstituted core and the core substituted with one O-polysaccharide repeating unit or with an O-polysaccharide of a variable number of repeating units. The core region is highly phosphorylated, the major species containing two monophosphate groups and one ethanolamine diphosphate group. Based on these and published data on the O-polysaccharide structure, the full structure of the LPS of P. aeruginosa immunotype 5 was established.

Carbohydrate Research 339(13) (2004) 2233-2239
Rheological studies have confirmed that the bacterial polysaccharide P2, a genetically modified variant of the Acetobacter xylinum polysaccharide acetan, undergoes synergistic gelation with either of the plant polysaccharides carob or konjac mannan. X-ray fibre diffraction data shows that P2 can form a 5-fold helical structure of pitch 4.7nm and an axial rise per disaccharide repeat of 0.92nm. Optical rotation data demonstrate that P2 undergoes a coil-helix transition in solution and that deacylation enhances the stability of the helical structure in solution. Studies made on mixtures prepared at different temperatures and ionic strengths suggest that denaturation of the P2 helix favours interaction and gelation. Deacetylation of P2 enhances gelation. X-ray diffraction data for oriented fibres prepared from deacetylated P2-konjac mannan mixed films reveal a 6-fold helical structure of pitch 5.54nm with an axial rise per disaccharide repeat also of 0.92nm. This mixed helix provides direct evidence for binding between the two polysaccharides. P2 contains two sites of acetylation: one on the backbone and one on the sidechain. The former site of acetylation inhibits helix formation for P2. It is suggested that this site of acetylation also inhibits formation of the mixed helix, explaining the enhanced gelation of mixtures on deacetylation.

Book: Comprehensive Glycoscience: From Chemistry to Systems Biology. Reference Module in Chemistry, Molecular Sciences and Chemical Engineering (2021) 1-75
Bacterial extracellular polysaccharides are known as a cell-bound capsule, a sheath, or a slime, which is excreted into the environment. They play an important role in virulence of medical bacteria and plant-to-symbiont interaction and are used for serotyping of bacteria and production of vaccines. Some exopolysaccharides have commercial applications in industry, and claims of health benefits have been documented for an increasing number of them. Exopolysaccharides have diverse composition and structure, and some contain sugar and non-sugar components that are found in bacterial carbohydrates only. The present article provides an updated collection of the data on exopolysaccharides of various classes of gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria reported until the end of 2019. When known, biosynthesis pathways of exopolysaccharides are treated in a summary manner. References are made to structure and biosynthesis relatedness between exopolysaccharides of different bacterial taxa as well as between bacterial polysaccharides and mammalian glycosaminoglycans.

Polymers 13(5) (2021) 815
Bacteria produce a variety of multifunctional polysaccharides, including structural, intracellular, and extracellular polysaccharides. They are attractive for the industrial sector due to their natural origin, sustainability, biodegradability, low toxicity, stability, unique viscoelastic properties, stable cost, and supply. When incorporated into different matrices, they may control emulsification, stabilization, crystallization, water release, and encapsulation. Acetan is an important extracellular water-soluble polysaccharide produced mainly by bacterial species of the genera Komagataeibacter and Acetobacter. Since its original description in Komagataeibacter xylinus, acetan-like polysaccharides have also been described in other species of acetic acid bacteria. Our knowledge on chemical composition of different acetan-like polysaccharides, their viscoelasticity, and the genetic basis for their production has expanded during the last years. Here, we review data on acetan biosynthesis, its molecular structure, genetic organization, and mechanical properties. In addition, we have performed an extended bioinformatic analysis on acetan-like polysaccharide genetic clusters in the genomes of Komagataeibacter and Acetobacter species. The analysis revealed for the first time a second acetan-like polysaccharide genetic cluster, that is widespread in both genera. All species of the Komagataeibacter possess at least one acetan genetic cluster, while it is present in only one third of the Acetobacter species surveyed.

Rath T, Ruhmann B, Sieber V "Systematic optimization of exopolysaccharide production by Gluconacetobacter sp. and use of (crude) glycerol as carbon source" -
Carbohydrate Polymers 276 (2022) 118769
The usage of polysaccharides as biodegradable polymers is of growing interest in the context of a sustainable and ecofriendly economy. For this, the production of exopolysaccharides (EPS) by Gluconacetobacter sp. was investigated. Glycerol as carbon source revealed to be beneficial compared to glucose. In addition, pure glycerol could be substituted by a crude glycerol waste stream from biodiesel production. Systematic analysis of the peptone and phosphate concentrations in glycerol-based media indicated a strong effect of peptone. Optimized parameters resulted in a titer of 25.4 ± 2.4 g/L EPS with a productivity of 0.46 ± 0.04 g*(L*h)-1. With decreasing peptone, a variation in the monomer ratios was observed. An accompanying change in molecular size distribution indicated the production of two different polysaccharides. Intensified analysis revealed the main polysaccharide to be composed of glucose (Glc), galactose (Gal), mannose (Man) and glucuronic acid (GlcA), and the minor polysaccharide of Gal, Man, ribose (Rib).

Microbiology 144 (1998) 639-653
Chemical and serological analysis has revealed that many of the 29 O serotype reference strains of Serratia marcescens contain both neutral and acidic polysaccharides which correspond to LPS O antigens and capsular K antigens, respectively. New O and K antigen typing schemes have therefore been devised, based on the known chemical structures of the surface polysaccharides of the organism. These schemes were designed to allow the specific detection of these antigens on unknown strains using ELISAs. O antigens were detected using whole cells cultured in broth then autoclaved to remove capsular material, while K antigens were detected using formolized whole cells which had been cultured on glycerol agar to enhance capsule production. After testing with the 29 reference strains as well as 423 distinct clinical strains, it was apparent that different aspects of chemical structure were associated with different degrees of serological reactivity and the typing schemes were modified further to accommodate this. In general, the O antigen repeating unit structures were chemically simple with di- or trisaccharide backbones. Serological specificity was often provided solely by the presence or absence of an O-acetyl substituent, or a change in the linkage between two sugar residues. Five of the O serotypes in the new scheme were represented by 12 of the 29 reference strains, while three reference strains lacked O antigens altogether, resulting in the elimination of 10 of the original O types. In contrast, the K antigen repeating unit structures were more complex and chemically diverse, having at least four sugar residues. Three K types were each seen in two reference strains while 12 of the 29 reference strains were acapsular. Thus, the resulting schemes contain 19 O types and 14 K types and allow the definitive serotype identification of S. marcescens.

The structure of the repeating unit of the O-antigenic polysaccharide from the lipopolysaccharide (LPS) of Serratia marcescens strain 111 was determined by compositional and methylation analyses and NMR spectroscopy as →6)-a-D-Glcp-(1→2)-a-L-Rhap-(1→2)-a-L-Rhap-(1→2)-a-L-Rhap-(1→ (Rha, rhamnose) which represents a new O-antigenic structure in LPS of S. marcescens but is similar to the structure of the repeating unit of the O-antigen of S. marcescens 018: →6)-a-D-GlcpNAc-(1→2)-a-L-Rhap-(1→2)-a-L-Rhap-(1→2)-a-L-Rhap-(1→. (Oxiey D., Wilkinson S.G. Structure of a neutral polymer isolated from the lipopolysaccharide of the reference strain for S. marcescens serogroup 018. Carbohydrate Research 1989; 195: 111-115). Serological investigations using S. marcescens 0- and K-specific ELISA tests and immunoblotting showed that S111 reacted with anti-018 and anti-K4 sera, and that the anti-S111 serum reacted with serotype strain 018. The K4 reaction was confirmed as capsular by the Quellung reaction. After absorption with the heterologous strain, S. marcescens 018 and strain 111 were shown to be immunologically distinct, probably because of the presence of the GlcNAc residue in 018. We propose to add S111 to the O-serotype strains of S. marcescens as 029.

A polysaccharide fraction was isolated from the Pantoea agglomerans IG1 lipopolysaccharide (IP-PA1), and its O-antigenic polysaccharide was characterized by chemical analyses and 1D and 2D 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy. The polysaccharide is composed of linear tetrasaccharide repeating units, consisting of glucose and rhamnose, where 40% of one of the rhamnose residues is substituted with glucose: →2)-α-l-Rhap-(1→6)-α-d-Glcp-(1→2)-[β-d-Glcp-(1→3)]0.4-α-l-Rhap-(1→2)-α-l-Rhap-(1→.

Carbohydrate Research 461 (2018) 25-31
Lactococcus lactis is the most widely utilised starter bacterial species in dairy fermentations. The L. lactis cell envelope contains polysaccharides, which, among other known functions, serve as bacteriophage receptors. Our previous studies have highlighted the structural diversity of these so-called cell wall polysaccharides (CWPSs) among L. lactis strains that could account for the narrow host range of most lactococcal bacteriophages. In the present work, we studied the CWPS of L. lactis strain UC509.9, an Irish dairy starter strain that is host to the temperate and well-characterized P335-type phage Tuc2009. The UC509.9 CWPS structure was analyzed by methylation, deacetylation/deamination, Smith degradation and 2D NMR spectroscopy. The CWPS consists of a linear backbone composed of a tetrasaccharide repeat unit, partially substituted with a branched phosphorylated oligosaccharide having a common trisaccharide and three non-stoichiometric substitutions.

European Journal of Biochemistry 268(17) (2001) 4708-4719
Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) expressed by isolates of Pseudomonas aeruginosa from cystic fibrosis patients lacks the O-polysaccharide chain but the degree to which the rest of the molecule changes has not been determined. We analyzed, for the first time, the core structure of an LPS from a rough, cystic fibrosis isolate of P. aeruginosa. The products of mild acid hydrolysis and strong alkaline degradation of the LPS were studied by ESI MS, MALDI MS, and NMR spectroscopy. The following structure was determined for the highest-phosphorylated core-lipid A backbone oligosaccharide isolated after alkaline deacylation of the LPS: [structure: see text] where Kdo and Hep are 3-deoxy-D-manno-octulosonic acid and L-glycero-D-manno-heptose, respectively; all sugars are in the pyranose form and have the D configuration unless stated otherwise. The outer core region occurs as two isomeric glycoforms differing in the position of rhamnose (Rha). The inner core region carries four phosphorylation sites at two Hep residues, HepI being predominantly bisphosphorylated and HepII monophosphorylated. In the intact LPS, both Hep residues carry monophosphate and diphosphate groups in nonstoichiometric quantities, GalN is N-acylated by an L-alanyl group, HepII is 7-O-carbamoylated, and the outer core region is nonstoichiometrically O-acetylated at four sites. Therefore, the switch to the LPS-rough phenotype in cystic fibrosis isolates of P. aeruginosa is not accompanied by losses of core monosaccharide, phosphate or acyl components. The exact positions of the O-acetyl groups and the role of the previously undescribed O-acetylation in the LPS core of P. aeruginosa remain to be determined.
