The polysaccharide part of the lipopolysaccharide obtained from the enteropathogenic Escherichia coli O142 has been isolated, and its structure determined. Together with 1H NMR and 13C NMR spectroscopy, sugar and methylation analyses show that the polysaccharide is composed of repeating pentasaccharide units. Sequential information on the O-polysaccharide was obtained by two-dimensional NMR techniques, namely heteronuclear-multiple-bond-connectivity and NOESY experiments. The repeating unit of the O-polysaccharide of E. coli strain O142 has the following structure: [structure: see text].
