Abstract
Lactobacillus helveticus TY1-2 produced an exocellular polysaccharide when it was cultured in reconstituted skim milk. This polysaccharide is a high molecular weight heteropolymer of D-glucopyranosyl, D-galactopyranosyl, and 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-D-glucopyranosyl residues in the molar ratio 3.0:2.8:0.9. The primary structure of the polysaccharide was shown by glycose analysis, methylation analysis, Smith degradation, and NMR spectroscopy to be composed of branched heptasaccharide repeating units having the following structure: [formula: see text]Entities:
