The fine structure and chain conformation of a heteropolysaccharide (PCIPS3) from mycelium of Paecilomyces cicadae were investigated via the analysis of HPLC, IR, methylation, NMR spectroscopy and multiangle light scattering. It was determined to be a 2.23 × 104 g/mol heteropolysaccharide primarily composed of glucose, galactose and mannose in a molar ratio of 23.8:2.1:1.0. The PCIPS3 backbone consisted of 1,4-linked α-D-Glcp and 1,4-linked 6-O-Me-α-D-Glcp residues, which were occasionally interrupted by branched β-Galf residues through 1,6-linkage. Moreover, the α (0.60) from Mark–Houwink–Sakurada (MHS) equation suggested that PCIPS3 adopted a flexible chain conformation in 0.1 mol/L NaNO3 at 25 °C. The worm-like chains model parameters for PCIPS3 were estimated as following: ML = 437 nm?1, q = 0.46 nm and 0.79 nm, which were further evidenced by AFM. Furthermore, PCIPS3 showed excellent scavenging capacities of 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl radical, superoxide radical, hydroxyl radical, ORAC radical and moderate immunomodulatory activity.

A novel water-soluble polysaccharide (named ALP-1) was successfully isolated from the stem barks of Acanthopanax leucorrhizus by hot-water extraction, and further purified by Cellulose DEAE-52 and Sephadex G-100 chromatography. The structure of ALP-1 was characterized by HPLC, HPGPC, partial acid hydrolysis, periodate oxidation, Smith degradation, methylation, together with UV, IR and NMR spectral analysis. The antioxidant activities also were evaluated in vitro. Structural analysis revealed that ALP-1 was a homogeneous galactan with the average molecular weight of 169 kDa, composed of galactose, glucose, mannose and arabinose in a molar ratio of 6.1:2.1:1.1:1.0, owning a backbone structure of 1,6-linked α-D-Galp residues with some branches of α-D-Manp-(1 → 3)-α-L-Araf residues at O-3 and α-D-Galp residues at O-4 of 1,6-linked α-D-Galp. Antioxidant assay showed that ALP-1 exhibited strong DPPH[rad] and HO[rad] scavenging activities, as well as ferric-reducing antioxidant power. These results provide a scientific basis for the further use of polysaccharides from A. leucorrhizus.

Fucogalactans from edible Agaricus bisporus (RFP-Ab) and wild Lactarius rufus (RFP-Lr) mushrooms were obtained on aqueous extraction followed by purification. RFP-Ab had Mw 43.8 × 104 g mol -1 and RFP-Lr Mw 1.4
Bioengineering of Leuconostoc mesenteroides glucansucrases that gives selected bond formation for glucan synthesis and/or acceptor-product synthesis

The variations in glucosidic linkage specificity observed in products of different glucansucrases appear to be based on relatively small differences in amino acid sequences in their sugar-binding acceptor subsites. Various amino acid mutations near active sites of DSRBCB4 dextransucrase from Leuconostoc mesenteroides B-1299CB4 were constructed. A triple amino acid mutation (S642N/E643N/V644S) immediately next to the catalytic D641 (putative transition state stabilizing residue) converted DSRBCB4 enzyme from the synthesis of mainly α-(1→6) dextran to the synthesis of α-(1→6) glucan containing branches of α-(1→3) and α-(1→4) glucosidic linkages. The subsequent introduction of mutation V532P/V535I, located next to the catalytic D530 (nucleophile), resulted in the synthesis of an α-glucan containing increased branched α-(1→4) glucosidic linkages (approximately 11%). The results indicate that mutagenesis can guide glucansucrase toward the synthesis of various oligosaccharides or novel polysaccharides with completely altered linkages without compromising high transglycosylation activity and efficiency.

Two new sterylacyl glucosides, sitoindosides I and II, isolated from the fruits of musa paradisiaca (banana, vegetable variety), have been assigned sitosterol 3-(6-O-palmitoyl-β-D-glucopyranoside) (1) and sitosterol 3-(6-O-oleoyl-β-D-glycopyranoside) (2) structures on the basis of spectroscopic analysis and chemical transformation.A 5:1 mixture of (1) and (2) (in doses of 50 mg/kg, oral administration) provided complete protection against aspirin-induced ulcer in albino rats and was free from any toxicity.
