Beynon LM, Richards JC, Perry MB "Identification of the common antigenic determinant shared by Streptococcus pneumoniae serotypes 35A and 20 capsular polysaccharides - Structural analysis of the Streptococcus pneumoniae serotype 35A capsular polysaccharide" -
European Journal of Biochemistry 250(1) (1997) 163-167
The specific polysaccharide antigen of Streptococcus pneumoniae serotype 35A was shown, by a combination of one- and two-dimensional NMR methods and chemical analyses, to be a high-molecular-mass polymer composed of D-galactose, D-glucose, mannitol, and phosphate (3:1:1:1). The pentasaccharide repeating unit is polymerized through phosphate diester linkages to give the structure, [formula in text] O-Acetyl substituents are present at positions 5 and 6 of the 3)-β-D-Galf residue and at position 2 of the 6)-β-D-Galf residue. The capsular polysaccharides of S. pneumoniae serotypes 20 and 35A both contain the disaccharide unit →3)-β-D-Galf-(1→3)-β-D-Glcp-(1→ which is the probable structural determinant responsible for the serological cross reactivity of the two polysaccharides

Calix JJ, Saad JS, Brady AM, Nahm MH "Structural characterization of Streptococcus pneumoniae serotype 9A capsule polysaccharide reveals role of glycosyl 6-O-acetyltransferase wcjE in serotype 9V capsule biosynthesis and immunogenicity" -
Journal of Biological Chemistry 287(17) (2012) 13996-14003
The putative capsule O-acetyltransferase gene wcjE is highly conserved across various Streptococcus pneumoniae serotypes, but the role of the gene in capsule biosynthesis and bacterial fitness remains largely unclear. Isolates expressing pneumococcal serotype 9A arise from precursors expressing wcjE-associated serotype 9V through loss-of-function mutation to wcjE. To define the biosynthetic role of 9V wcjE, we characterized the structure and serological properties of serotype 9V and 9A capsule polysaccharide (PS). NMR data revealed that both 9V and 9A PS are composed of an identical pentasaccharide repeat unit, as reported previously. However, in sharp contrast to previous studies on 9A PS being devoid of any O-acetylation, we identified O-acetylation of α-glucuronic acid and α-glucose in 9A PS. In addition, 9V PS also contained -CH(2) O-acetylation of β-N-acetylmannosamine, a modification that disappeared following in vitro recombinatorial deletion of wcjE. We also show that serotyping sera and monoclonal antibodies specific for 9V and 9A bound capsule PS in an O-acetate-dependent manner. Furthermore, IgG and to a lesser extent IgM from human donors immunized with serotype 9V PS displayed stronger binding to 9V compared with 9A PS. We conclude that serotype 9V wcjE mediates 6-O-acetylation of β-N-acetylmannosamine. This PS modification can be selectively targeted by antibodies in immunized individuals, identifying a potential selective advantage for wcjE inactivation and serotype 9A emergence.

Petersen BO, Meier S, Paulsen BS, Redondo AR, Skovsted IC "Determination of native capsular polysaccharide structures of Streptococcus pneumoniae serotypes 39, 42, and 47F and comparison to genetically or serologically related strains" -
Carbohydrate Research 395 (2014) 38-46
The diversity of capsular polysaccharides of the bacterial pathogen Streptococcus pneumoniae leads to at least 91 different serotypes. While the genetic loci for capsular biosynthesis have been characterized for all serotypes, the determination of resultant polysaccharide structures remains incomplete. Here, we report the chemical structures of the capsular polysaccharides of serotypes 39, 42, and 47F from the genetic cluster 4, and discuss the structures in the context of structures from serologically and genetically related serotypes. Antigenic determinants can be approximated in this manner. The structure of the serotype 39 capsular polysaccharide is and has identical composition to the capsular polysaccharide 10A, but two different linkages. The serotype 42 structure closely resembles the genetically related serotype 35A, which does not contain residue A. The structure of the serotype 47F capsular polysaccharide is somewhat different from a recently determined structure from the same serogroup, while containing a structural motif that is reflected in serotype 35A and 42 capsular polysaccharide structures, thus explaining the cross-reactivity of serotype 47F with the typing serum 35a.

Bush CA, Cisar JO, Yang J "Structures of Capsular Polysaccharide Serotypes 35F and 35C of Streptococcus pneumoniae Determined by Nuclear Magnetic Resonance and Their Relation to Other Cross-Reactive Serotypes" -
Journal of Bacteriology 197(17) (2015) 2762-2769
The structures of Streptococcus pneumoniae capsular polysaccharides (CPSs) are essential for defining the antigenic as well as genetic relationships between CPS serotypes. The four serotypes that comprise CPS serogroup 35 (i.e., types 35F, 35A, 35B, and 35C) are known to cross-react with genetically related type 20, 29, 34, 42, or 47F. While the structures of CPS serotype 35A (CPS35A) and CPS35B are known, those of CPS35F and CPS35C are not. In the present study, the serotypes of CPS35F and CPS35C were characterized by high-resolution heteronuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy and glycosyl composition analyses to reveal the following repeat unit structures: [Formula: see text] where OAc indicates O-acetylated. Importantly, CPS35F, the immunizing serotype for the production of group 35 serum, more closely resembles CPS34 and CPS47F than other members of serogroup 35. Moreover, CPS35C is distinct from either CPS35F or CPS35B but closely related to CPS35A and identical to de-O-acetylated CPS42. The findings provide a comprehensive view of the structural and genetic relations that exist between the members of CPS serogroup 35 and other cross-reactive serotypes. IMPORTANCE: Cross-reactions of diagnostic rabbit antisera with Streptococcus pneumoniae capsular polysaccharide serotypes are generally limited to members of the same serogroup. Exceptions do, however, occur, most notably among a group of nonvaccine serotypes that includes the members of serogroup 35 (i.e., types 35F, 35A, 35B, and 35C) and other genetically related types. The presently determined structures of S. pneumoniae serotypes 35F and 35C complete the structural characterization of serogroup 35 and thereby provide the first comprehensive description of how different members of this serogroup are related to each other and to types 29, 34, 42, and 47F. The structural and genetic features of these serotypes suggest the existence of three distinct capsular polysaccharide subgroups that presumably emerged by immune selection in the human host.

Knirel YA, Van Calsteren M "Bacterial exopolysaccharides" -
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.

The specific capsular polysaccharide produced by Rhodococcus equi serotype 4 was found to be a high-molecular-weight acidic polymer composed of D-glucose, D-mannose, pyruvic acid and a previously unidentified 5-amino-3,5-dideoxynonulosonic (rhodaminic) acid in the proportions 2:1:1:1. Structural analysis, employing a combination of microanalytical methods, nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, and mass spectrometric techniques, established that the polysaccharide consisted of linear repeating tetrasaccharide units having the sequence of residues shown below. In the native polysaccharide, the rhodaminic acid residues were present as their acetamido derivatives (RhoANAc) and carried 1-carboxyethylidene groups that bridged the O-7 and O-9 positions. Treatment of the capsular polysaccharide with dilute acetic acid and/or anhydrous hydrogen fluoride under hydrolytic/solvolytic conditions, resulted in the formation of four different oligosaccharide species. The 1H and 13C NMR resonances of these oligosaccharide fragments and of the native serotype 4 capsular polysaccharides were fully assigned by homo- and heteronuclear chemical shift correlation methods.

The exopolysaccharides produced by three propionibacteria strains, Propionibacterium freudenreichii 109, Propionibacterium freudenreichii 111, and Propionibacterium thoenii 126, grown on whey-based media, were found to be charged heteropolymers, composed of d-glucose, d-mannose, and d-glucuronic acid in molar ratios of 2:2:1. By means of methylation analysis, mass spectrometry, partial acid hydrolysis, and 1D/2D NMR ((1)H and (13)C) studies, it was determined that all three exopolysaccharides contain the same branched, pentasaccharide repeating unit:

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND: Histophilus somni, a gram-negative coccobacillus, is an obligate inhabitant of bovine and ovine mucosal surfaces, and an opportunistic pathogen responsible for respiratory disease and other systemic infections in cattle and sheep. Capsules are important virulence factors for many pathogenic bacteria, but a capsule has not been identified on H. somni. However, H. somni does form a biofilm in vitro and in vivo, and the biofilm matrix of most bacteria consists of a polysaccharide. RESULTS: Following incubation of H. somni under growth-restricting stress conditions, such as during anaerobiosis, stationary phase, or in hypertonic salt, a polysaccharide could be isolated from washed cells or culture supernatant. The polysaccharide was present in large amounts in broth culture sediment after H. somni was grown under low oxygen tension for 4-5 days (conditions favorable to biofilm formation), but not from planktonic cells during log phase growth. Immuno-transmission electron microscopy showed that the polysaccharide was not closely associated with the cell surface, and was of heterogeneous high molecular size by gel electrophoresis, indicating it was an exopolysaccharide (EPS). The EPS was a branched mannose polymer containing some galactose, as determined by structural analysis. The mannose-specific Moringa M lectin and antibodies to the EPS bound to the biofilm matrix, demonstrating that the EPS was a component of the biofilm. The addition of N-acetylneuraminic acid to the growth medium resulted in sialylation of the EPS, and increased biofilm formation. Real-time quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction analyses indicated that genes previously identified in a putative polysaccharide locus were upregulated when the bacteria were grown under conditions favorable to a biofilm, compared to planktonic cells. CONCLUSIONS: H. somni is capable of producing a branching, mannose-galactose EPS polymer under growth conditions favorable to the biofilm phase of growth, and the EPS is a component of the biofilm matrix. The EPS can be sialylated in strains with sialyltransferase activity, resulting in enhanced density of the biofilm, and suggesting that EPS and biofilm formation may be important to persistence in the bovine host. The EPS may be critical to virulence if the biofilm state is required for H. somni to persist in systemic sites.

FEBS Journal 279(10) (2012) 1844-1856
Candida glabrata is often the second or third most common cause of candidiasis after Candida albicans. C. glabrata infections are difficult to treat, often resistant to many azole antifungal agents and are associated with a high mortality rate in compromised patients. We determined the antigenic structure of the cell-wall mannoproteins from three C. glabrata strains, NBRC 0005, NBRC 0622 and NBRC 103857. 1H NMR and methylation analyses of the acetolysis products of these mannoproteins showed a significant difference in the amount of the β-1,2-linked mannose residue and side-chain structure. The C. glabrata NBRC 103857 strain contained up to the triose side chains and the nonreducing terminal of the triose was predominantly the β-1,2-linked mannose residue. By contrast, the mannans of the two former strains possessed up to the tetraose side chains and the amount of the β-1,2-linked mannose residue was very low. Larger oligosaccharides than tetraose in the acetolysis products of these mannans were identified as incomplete cleavage fragments by analyzing methylation, 1H NMR spectra and the α1-2,3 mannosidase degradation reaction. Resistance to the antifungal drugs itraconazole and micafungin was significantly different in these strains. Interestingly, the NBRC 103857 strain, which involved a large amount of the β-1,2-linked mannose residues, exhibited significant sensitivity to these antifungal drugs.

Journal of Biological Chemistry 280(2) (2005) 1051-1060
The MNT1 gene of the human fungal pathogen Candida albicans is involved in O-glycosylation of cell wall and secreted proteins and is important for adherence of C. albicans to host surfaces and for virulence. Here we describe the molecular analysis of CaMNT2, a second member of the MNT1-like gene family in C. albicans. Mnt2p also functions in O-glycosylation. Mnt1p and Mnt2p encode partially redundant α-1,2-mannosyltransferases that catalyze the addition of the second and third mannose residues in an O-linked man no se pentamer. Deletion of both copies of MNT1 and MNT2 resulted in reduction in the level of in vitro mannosyltransferase activity and truncation of O-mannan. Both the mnt2Δ and mnt1Δ single mutants were significantly reduced in adherence to human buccal epithelial cells and Matrigel-coated surfaces, indicating a role for O-glycosylated cell wall proteins or O-mannan itself in adhesion to host surfaces. The double mnt1Δmnt2Δ mutant formed aggregates of cells that appeared to be the result of abnormal cell separation. The double mutant was attenuated in virulence, underlining the importance of O-glycosylation in pathogenesis of C. albicans infections.

Carbohydrate Research 145 (1985) 59-66
The O-antigen polysaccharides of Klebsiella serotype O5 and Escherichia coli serotype O8 are serologically very similar or identical. The structures of these two polysaccharides have now been re-investigated. N.m.r. spectroscopy, chromium trioxide oxidation, hydrolysis with a specific phage enzyme, and f.a.b. mass spectrometry were the principal methods used. It is concluded that the O-antigen has the following structure, in which D-Man3Me is 3-O-methyl-D-mannose and n is approximately 10. (Formula: see text) Biosynthetic studies indicate that these antigens are synthesised by addition of D-mannopyranosyl groups to the "non-reducing" end of the mannan chain, and it seems possible that addition of a 3-O-methyl-D-mannopyranosyl group involves termination.

Glycobiology 22(12) (2012) 1760-1767
Streptococcus pneumoniae is a major human pathogen associated with diseases worldwide. The capsular polysaccharides (CPSs) are considered a major virulence factor and are targets for a vaccine. d-Mannitol was found to be present in the CPS of several S. pneumoniae serotypes. Two genes, mnp1 and mnp2, which are located in the CPS gene cluster, were proposed to be responsible for the synthesis of NDP-d-mannitol (the nucleotide activated form of d-mannitol). However, the pathway has never been identified by experimental methods and we aimed to characterize it in the present study. To achieve this, the two genes, mnp1 and mnp2, were cloned and the gene products were overexpressed, purified, and analyzed in vitro for their respective enzymatic activities. Products of reactions catalyzed by Mnp1 and Mnp2 were detected by capillary electrophoresis and validated using electrospray ionization mass spectrometry and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. We show that Mnp1 is responsible for the transfer of CMP from CTP to d-fructose-6-phosphate (Fru-6-P) to form CDP-d-fructose, whereas Mnp2 catalyzed the conversion of CDP-d-fructose to CDP-d-mannitol. Therefore, Mnp1 (renamed as mnpA) was identified as Fru-6-P cytidylyltransferase-encoding gene, and mnp2 (renamed as mnpB) as a CDP-d-fructose reductase-encoding gene. The kinetics of Mnp1 for the substrate (Fru-6-P and CTP) and of Mnp2 for the substrate (CDP-d-fructose) and the cofactor NADH or NADPH fitted the Michaelis-Menten model. The effects of temperature, pH and cations on the two enzymes were analyzed. This is the first time that the biosynthetic pathway of CDP-d-mannitol has been identified biochemically.

Information on the prevalence, compositions, and structures of anionic carbohydrate-containing polymers of cell walls of Gram-positive bacteria is summarized. The data suggest that these polymers are important for normal functioning of bacterial cells and require further studies. Structural data on teichoic acids found in the literature published over the last few years are discussed. This is a very diverse class of polymers whose structure-specific pathways of degradation were studied and NMR spectra were examined. Unique comprehensive tables of 13C-NMR spectroscopic data (mainly obtained by the authors) on these polymers are given in the Appendix. Other tables summarize data on teichuronic acids, sugar-phosphate polymers, acid polysaccharides, and structural variants of bonds between acid polysaccharides and peptidoglycans known from the literature. Functions of anionic polymers and their possible chemotaxonomic applications are discussed
