Abstract excerpt
The structure of an unusual trisaccharide component isolated from the lipopolysaccharide (LPS) of a Tn5 mutant of Rhizobium leguminosarum biovar viciae VF39 which is defective in infection of its host plant has been elucidated. This mutant also appears to be defective in the synthesis of a tetrasaccharide component normally synthesized by the wild-type organism. The three glycosyl components are galactose,...
