Single mid-chain GlcNAc beta 1-6Gal beta 1-4R sequences of linear oligosaccharides are resistant to endo-beta-galactosidase of Bacteroides fragilis
Abstract
Endo-beta-galactosidase (EC 3.2.1.103) of Bacteroides fragilis, at 250 mU ml-1, did not cleave the internal galactosidic linkage of the linear radiolabelled trisaccharide GlcNAc beta 1-6Gal beta 1-4GlcNAc, or those of tetrasaccharides Gal beta 1-4GlcNAc beta 1-6Gal beta 1-4GlcNAc and Gal beta 1-4GlcNAc beta 1-6Gal beta 1-4Glc. The isomeric glycans which contained the GlcNAc beta 1-3Gal beta 1-4GlcNAc/Glc sequence were readily cleaved.
