The structure of a neutral polysaccharide isolated by degradation with dilute acetic acid of the lipopolysaccharide (LPS) of P. mirabilis O24 has been determined recently [E. Literacka et al., FEBS Lett., 456 (1999) 227-231]. Further studies of this LPS using alkaline degradation and hydrolysis at pH 4.5 showed that the polysaccharide chain includes an acetal-linked pyruvic acid residue, which is removed completely during delipidation with acetic acid. A revision using 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy and methylation analysis resulted in determination of the following full structure of the repeating unit of the O-specific polysaccharide: carbohydrate sequence [see text] where D-Gal3,4(S-Pyr) is 3,4-O-[(S)-1-carboxyethylidene]-D-galactose.
