- The structure of the O-antigen polysaccharide (PS) from the enteroaggregative Escherichia coli strain 396/C-1 has been determined. Sugar and methylation analyses together with 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy were the main methods used. Inter-residue correlations were determined by 1H,1H-NOESY, 1H,13C-heteronuclear multiple-bond correlation and dipole–dipole cross-correlated relaxation experiments. The PS is composed of pentasaccharide repeating units with the following structure: Full-size image (2K) Analysis of NMR data reveals that on average the PS consists of 13 repeating units and indicates that the biological repeating unit contains an N-acetylglucosamine residue at its reducing end. This structure is different to that reported for the O-antigen polysaccharide from E. coli O126. Monospecific anti-E. coli O126 rabbit serum from The International Escherichia and Klebsiella Centre did not distinguish between the E. coli strain 396/C-1 and the E. coli O126 reference strain, neither in slide agglutination nor in an indirect enzyme immunoassay. Subsequent successful serotyping of the E. coli strain 396/C-1 showed it to be E. coli O126:K+:H27.

- The structure of the O-antigen polysaccharide (PS) from the enteroaggregative Escherichia coli strain 180/C3 has been determined. Sugar and methylation analysis together with 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy were the main methods used. The PS is composed of tetrasaccharide repeating units with the following structure:→2)-β-d-Quip3NAc-(1→3)-β-d-Ribf-(1→4)-β-d-Galp-(1→3)-α-d-GalpNAc-(1→Analysis of NMR data indicates that the presented sequence of sugar residues also represents the biological repeating unit of the O-chain. The structure is closely related to that of O-antigen polysaccharide from E. coli O5 and partially to that of E. coli O65. The difference between the O-antigen from the 180/C3 strain and that of E. coli O5 is the linkage to the d-Quip3NAc residue, which in the latter strain is 4-O-substituted. The E. coli O65 O-antigen contains as part of its linear pentasaccharide repeating unit a similar structural element, namely →4)-β-d-GalpA-(1→3)-α-d-GlcpNAc-(1→2)-β-d-Quip3NAc-(1→, thereby indicating that a common epitope could be present for the two polysaccharides. Monospecific anti-E. coli O5 rabbit serum did not distinguish between the two positional isomeric structures neither in slide agglutination nor in an indirect enzyme immunoassay. The anti-O65 serum did react with both the 180/C3 and O5 LPS showing a partial cross-reactivity.

- The structure of the O-antigen polysaccharides (PS) from the enteroaggregative Escherichia coli strain 94/D4 and the international type strain E. coli O82 have been determined. Component analysis and 1H, 13C, and 31P NMR spectroscopy experiments were employed to elucidate the structure. Inter-residue correlations were determined by 1H, 13C-heteronuclear multiple-bond correlation, and 1H, 1H-NOESY experiments. d-GroA as a substituent is linked via its O-2 in a phosphodiester-linkage to O-6 of the α-d-Glcp residue. The PS is composed of tetrasaccharide repeating units with the following structure: →4)-α-d-Glcp6-(P-2-d-GroA)-(1→4)-β-d-Galp-(1→4)-β-d-Glcp-(1→3)-β-d-GlcpNAc-(1→ Cross-peaks of low intensity from an α-d-Glcp residue were present in the NMR spectra and spectral analysis indicates that they originate from the terminal residue of the polysaccharide. Consequently, the biological repeating unit has a 3-substituted N-acetyl-d-glucosamine residue at its reducing end. Enzyme immunoassay using specific anti-E. coli O82 rabbit sera showed identical reactivity to the LPS of the two strains, in agreement with the structural analysis of their O-antigen polysaccharides.
