Scalar, dipolar-correlated and J-resolved 2D-NMR spectroscopy of the specific phenolic mycoside of Mycobacterium tuberculosis

European Journal of Biochemistry
M Daffé, P Servin

Abstract

Two-dimensional chemical shift correlated (COSY), nuclear Overhauser (NOESY) and J-resolved spectroscopy were used to determine the complete structure of the major triglycosyl dimycocerosyl phenol phthiocerol of the tubercle bacillus (strain Canetti) without any other analytical technique. The COSY spectrum of the native glycolipid allowed the composition of the trisaccharide and the location of one methoxyl group to be determined through the assignment of the resonances of the non-anomeric methine protons. Information with respect to the configuration of the sugar residues, the pyranose structure and the linkage sites of the trisaccharide were obtained by the analysis of the COSY spectrum of the peracetylated glycolipid. The NOESY spectrum confirmed the linkage sites through the inter-residue connectivity across glycosidic linkages and allowed the determination of the sequence of the oligosaccharide and the configuration of its sugar residues from the through-space connectivities. The J-resolved spectroscopy was used to elucidate the structure of the glycolipid and gave additional data showing the presence of 11 non-equivalent methyl groups and allowing the recognition of two other analogues of the phenol phthiocerol derivativ...Continue Reading

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Chronic fatigue syndrome is a disease characterized by unexplained disabling fatigue; the pathology of which is incompletely understood. Discover the latest research on chronic fatigue syndrome here.

Evolution of Pluripotency

Pluripotency refers to the ability of a cell to develop into three primary germ cell layers of the embryo. This feed focuses on the mechanisms that underlie the evolution of pluripotency. Here is the latest research.

Position Effect Variegation

Position Effect Variagation occurs when a gene is inactivated due to its positioning near heterochromatic regions within a chromosome. Discover the latest research on Position Effect Variagation here.

STING Receptor Agonists

Stimulator of IFN genes (STING) are a group of transmembrane proteins that are involved in the induction of type I interferon that is important in the innate immune response. The stimulation of STING has been an active area of research in the treatment of cancer and infectious diseases. Here is the latest research on STING receptor agonists.

Microbicide

Microbicides are products that can be applied to vaginal or rectal mucosal surfaces with the goal of preventing, or at least significantly reducing, the transmission of sexually transmitted infections. Here is the latest research on microbicides.
