Abstract
The structure of the lipopolysaccharide core of Vibrio vulnificus type strain 27562 is presented. LPS hydrolysis gave two oligosaccharides, OS-1 and OS-2, as well as lipid A. NMR spectroscopic data corresponded to the presence of one Kdo residue, one beta-glucopyranose, three heptoses, one glyceric acid, one acetate, three PEtN, and one 5,7-diacylamido-3,5,7,9-tetradeoxynonulosonic acid residue (pseudaminic acid, Pse) in OS1. OS2 differed form OS 1 by the absence of glyceric acid, acetate, and Pse residues. Lipid A was analyzed for fatty acid composition and the following fatty acids were found: C14:0, C12:0-3OH, C16:0, C16:1, C14:0-3OH, C18:0, C18:1 in a ratio of 1:3:3:1:2.5:0.6:0.8.
