The exopolysaccharide produced by Lactobacillus paracasei 34-1 in a semi-defined medium was found to be a heteropolymer, composed of d -galactose, 2-acetamido-2-deoxy- d -galactose, and sn -glycerol 3-phosphate in molar ratios of 3:1:1. By means of deglycerophosphorylation, methylation analysis, and 1D/2D NMR studies ( 1 H, 13 C, and 31 P) the polysaccharide was shown to consist of repeating units with the following structure |
