The structure of the O-antigenic part of the lipopolysaccharide (LPS) obtained from the verotoxin-producing Escherichia coli O171 has been determined. (1)H and (13)C NMR spectroscopy techniques in combination with component analysis were used to elucidate the O-antigen structure of O-deacylated LPS. Subsequent NMR analysis of the native LPS revealed acetylation at O-7/O-9 of the sialic acid residue. The sequence of sugars was determined by inter-residue correlations in (1)H,(1)H-NOESY and (1)H,(13)C-heteronuclear multiple-bond correlation spectra. The O-antigen is composed of pentasaccharide repeating units with one equivalent of O-acetyl groups distributed over two positions: Based on biosynthetic considerations, this should also be the biological repeating unit
