摘要
The structure of the extracellular polysaccharide (EPS) produced by Erwinia chrysanthemi strain A2148 has been determined using low pressure size-exclusion and anion-exchange chromatographies, high pH anion-exchange chromatography, glycosyl-linkage analysis, and 1D H-1 NMR spectroscopy. The polysaccharide is structurally similar, if not identical, to the EPS produced by E. chrysanthemi strain A350. A streptomycin-resistant strain of E. chrysanthemi Ech6 (Ech6S(+)) has been generated and has an elevated production of EPS, as does a streptomycin-resistant strain (Ech9Sm6) of E. chrysanthemi Ech9. These modified E. chrysanthemi spp. have been ribotyped and found to be closely related to their parent strains. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
