The primary structure of the de-O-acetylated glucuronoxylomannan isolated from Cryptococcus neoformans serotype D was characterized de novo by NMR spectroscopy. Assignment of the 1H and 13C spectra of the polysaccharide involved a combination of NMR-2D experiments including double-quantum-filtered {1H,1H} COSY, {1H,1H} TOCSY and 1H-detected {1H,13C} heteronuclear multiple quantum coherence spectroscopy. The sequence of the glycosyl residues, including the linkage positions, was deduced by {1H,1H} rotating-frame NOE (ROESY) spectroscopy. The serotype-D glucuronoxylomannan was found to be a branched polymer with a repeating pentasaccharide unit of the following structure.
