Abstract
Two types of cell wall glycopolymers of different structure were found in the type strains of two species of phytopathogenic bacteria, Clavibacter insidiosus VKM Ac-1402T and Clavibacter nebraskensis VKM Ac-1404T (family Microbacteriaceae, class Actinomycetes). The first type was represented by new, previously undescribed (1→6)-linked β-D-galactofuranans, which in the studied strains differed in the structure of side oligosaccharide chains (the structures are given in the text). The structure of the second glycopolymer, a pyruvate-containing galactomannan, was identical in both strains. The results obtained in this work, together with those published previously, indicate that the presence of the pyruvate-containing galactomannan and galactofuranans (with an identical core structure and different side oligosaccharide substituents) can be considered as a chemotaxonomic trait of the genus Clavibacter, and galactofuranans with di-, tri-, or tetrasaccharide substituents of different composition and structures can serve as chemotaxonomic markers of the species. The data obtained expand our understanding of the structural diversity of natural glycopolymers and structural features of the bacterial cell walls in various taxa and may be of interest for taxonomic studies and the studies aimed at elucidating the molecular mechanisms of interaction between bacteria and plant cells.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
