RESUMO

4-O-(2-Amino-2-deoxy-alpha-D-glucopyranosyl-6-O-(2-amino-2-deoxy-alpha-D-galactopyranuronyl)-D-glucopyranose, a branched-chain trisaccharide, was isolated after hydrolysis of Bordetella pertussis endotoxin with 4 M HCl for 1 h at 100 degrees C. The trisaccharide was present in both polysaccharide moieties of the two constituent lipopolysaccharides of this endotoxin. Its structure was established by analysis of the 400-MHz nuclear magnetic resonance spectrum and by chemical and enzymatic degradation.
