Biosynthesis of Polysaccharides in Acetobacter xylinum Sequential Synthesis of a Heptasaccharide Diphosphate Prenol
The sequential synthesis in vitro of a heptasaccharide diphosphate prenol, containing glucose, mannose, glucuronic acid and rhamnose in the ratio 4:1:1:1 is described. The enzyme preparation consisted of EDTA‐treated Acetobacter xylinum cells and UDP‐glucose, GDO‐mannose, UDP‐glucuronic acid and TDP...
