A degradation protocol using de-O-acylation and subsequent alkaline de-N-acylation was applied to the lipopolysaccharide of Ochrobactrum anthropi rough strain LMG 3301. Three main oligosaccharide bisphosphates containing core-lipid A backbone structures were obtained after fractionation by anion-exchange HPLC. Using 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy, including two-dimensional COSY, TOCSY, and NOE spectroscopy (ROESY and NOESY), the following structures were established: [formula: see text] where Kdo is 3-deoxy-D-manno-octulosonic acid, D-GlcN3N is 2,3-diamino-2,3-dideoxy-D- glucose and R is H or alpha-D-GalpA or 4-deoxy-beta-L-threo-hex-4-enopyranuronic acid, the latter sugar being derived from alpha-D-GalpA by beta-elimination of a substituent attached to 0-4. This is the first report on the isolation from a lipopolysaccharide of an oligosaccharide containing GlcN3N in the lipid A backbone [beta-D-GlcpN3N4P-(1-->6)-alpha-D-GlcpN3N1 P]. Sugar and methylation analysis confirmed the presence of the GalA-->Kdo disaccharide and non-stoichiometric substitution of GalA. It is suggested that Glc is the substituent at 0-4 in GalA and that in the non-degraded lipopolysaccharide the amino group of GlcN is not acylated.
