Identification by n.m.r. spectroscopy of oligosaccharides obtained by treatment of the hairy regions of apple pectin with rhamnogalacturonase
Abstract
2D-N.m.r. methods have been used to determine the composition of a mixture of oligosaccharides obtained by enzymic degradation of the modified hairy (ramified) regions of apple pectin with a new rhamnogalacturonase. The structures of the oligosaccharides were based on the unit alpha-Rhap-(1----4)-alpha-GalA-(1----2)-alpha-Rhap-(1----4)- GalA. A-beta-Galp unit was 4-linked to approximately half of the terminal Rhap residues and to half of the (1----2)-linked Rhap residues. The sample contained a mixture of a tetrasaccharide, two pentasaccharides, and one hexasaccharide.
