The structure of the polysaccharide part of the lipopolysaccharide obtained from the enteropathogenic Escherichia coli O125 has been investigated. Methylation analysis, 1H NMR spectroscopy and 13C NMR spectroscopy revealed that the polysaccharide is composed of repeating hexasaccharide units. Smith degradation of the native O-polysaccharide resulted in a polysaccharide with four sugar residues in the repeating unit. Information on the sequence of the native O-polysaccharide and the Smith-degraded product was obtained by two-dimensional techniques, namely heteronuclear-multiple-bond-connectivity and NOESY experiments. The structure of the repeating unit of the O-polysaccharide of E. coli strain O125, which has two adjacent branch-point residues, is [sequence: see text].
