Abstract
Sulfated schizophylians with lower anticoagulant activity and higher anti-HIV activity were prepared. Those with sulfur contents above 6% showed anticoagulant activity irrespective of molecular weight. The activity was correlated with sulfur content. The triple helical structure of sulfated schizophylians did not affect their anticoagulant activity. A sulfated schizophyllan with a sulfur content of 5.0% showed low anticoagulant activity and good anti-HIV activity. These results indicate that the latter sulfated schizophyllan (sulfur content, 5%) would be useful as an anti-HIV agent for treatment of HIV-infected hemophiliacs.
