摘要
A water-soluble pectic polysaccharide (PS-I) isolated from the hot water extract of the pods of green bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) by successive purification through dialysis, centrifugation and Sepharose-6B gel filtration was found to consist of methyl ester of D-galacturonic acid, D-galactose, and L-arabinose in a molar ratio of nearly 2:2:1. This molecule showed splenocyte, thymocyte activation as well as antioxidant properties. Structural studies of PS-I was performed using acid hydrolysis, methylation analysis, periodate oxidation studies along with NMR analysis (H-1, C-13, TOCSY, DQF-COSY, NOESY, ROESY, HMQC, and HMBC) and the repeating unit of PS-I was established as: -> 4)-alpha-D-GalpA6Me-(1 -> 4)-alpha-D-GalpA6Me-(1 -> 2 up arrow I alpha-D-Galp-(1 -> 3)-beta-L-Arap-(1 -> 4)-beta-D-Galp (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd.
