Structural determination of oligosaccharides derived from lipooligosaccharide of Neisseria gonorrhoeae F62 by chemical, enzymatic, and two-dimensional NMR methods.

Abstract:

:F62 LOS of Neisseria gonorrhoeae consists of two major LOS components; the higher and smaller molecular weight (MW) components were recognized by MAbs 1-1-M and 3F11 respectively. Base-line separation of the two major oligosaccharide (OS) components from F62 LOS was achieved by Bio-Gel P-4 chromatography after dephosphorylation of the OS mixture. The structures of the two major OSs were studied by chemical, enzymatic, and 2D NMR methods [double quantum filtered COSY (DQF-COSY), delayed COSY (D-COSY), homonuclear Hartmann-Hahn spectroscopy (HOHAHA), pure-absorption 2D NOE NMR] as well as methylation followed by GC/MS analysis. The OS component derived from the MAb 1-1-M defined LOS component was determined to have a V3-(beta-N-acetylgalactosaminyl)neolactotetraose structure (GalNAc is beta 1----3-linked to a neolactotetraose) at one of its nonreducing termini as shown below. The above pentaose is linked to a branched diheptose-KDO core in which a GlcNAc is alpha-linked. The OS component derived from the MAb 3F11 defined LOS component did not have a GalNAc residue. The rest of its structure was identical to that of the OS-1, and a neolactotetraose is exposed at its nonreducing terminus. [formula: see text]
