Abstract
Previous structural studies in our laboratory on lipopolysaccharide derived core oligosaccharide had identified a conserved inner core structure in several strains of the veterinary pathogens Mannheimia haemolytica, Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae and Pasteurella multocida. In this study we describe the elucidation of the core oligosaccharide structure of two strains from M. haemolytica serotype 2. Structural information was established by a combination of monosaccharide and methylation analyses, NMR spectroscopy and mass spectrometry. The following structure for the core oligosaccharide was determined on the basis of the combined data from these experiments: ▪ The structural analyses revealed that the conserved inner core structure was maintained in this serotype, with only the terminal β-galactose residue of serotype 1 absent.
