An O-specific polysaccharide (OPS) was isolated from the lipopolysaccharide of Pseudomonas mediterranea strain C5P1rad1, the causal agents of tomato pith necrosis and Chrysanthemum stem rot, and studied by one- and two-dimensional 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy. The following structure of the trisaccharide repeating unit of the OPS was established, which, to our knowledge, is unique among the known bacterial polysaccharide structures: →4)-β-d-ManpNAc3NAcA-(1→4)-β-d-ManpNAc3NAcA-(1→3)-α-d-QuipNAc4NAc-(1→ where QuiNAc4NAc and ManNAc3NAcA indicate 2,4-diacetamido-2,4,6-trideoxyglucose and 2,3-diacetamido-2,3-dideoxymannuronic acid, respectively. Pre-treatment of leaves with LPS or OPS preparations at 250 and 50 μg mL-1 did not inhibit development of a hypersensitivity reaction induced by P. mediterranea C5P1rad1 on tobacco, tomato and chrysanthemum plants. The same preparations at 250 μg mL-1 partially prevented elicitation of the hypersensitivity reaction by Pseudomonas syringae KVPT7RC on chrysanthemum but not tobacco and tomato.

Structure type: polymer chemical repeating unit
Location inside paper: abstract, p.49, table 1
Compound class: O-polysaccharide
Methods: 13C NMR, 1H NMR, NMR-2D, sugar analysis, mild acid hydrolysis, GPC
Biological activity: hypersensitivity tests with the LPS and OPS on host and non-host plant leaves; Pre-treatment of leaves with LPS or OPS preparations at 250 and 50 mg mL(-1), did not inhibit the hypersensitive reaction (HR) development against P. mediterranea C5P1rad1.
