Plant and Algal Polysaccharides BY I. M. MORRISON 1 Introduction
volume of the comprehensive treatise on the biochemistry of plants has been devoted to the structure and function of carbohydrates.' The proceedings of a symposium on the mechanism of saccharide polymerization and depolymerization have been published with several articles relevant to this chapter.' The state of macromolecular chemistry at the present time, with particular reference to the pulp and paper industry, has been r e ~ i e w e d . ~ A

The structure of the hydrated amylose-iodine complex has been determined by combined methods of X-ray diffraction and stereochemical packing analysis and shown to be an orthorhombic 13.60, = 23.42,and 2 (the fibre unit cell with dimensions of 2 Two amylose chains pass through the unit cell repeat) = 8. and iodide ions were present as an almost linear chain in the centre of the six-fold, left-handed amylose helix. Eight molecules of hydration per unit cell were located in good hydrogen-bonding positions between the amylose helices. The crystal structure of lJh amylose has been refined by similar methods to show another orthorhombic unit cell of dimensions ,a = 13.65, b = 23.70,and 2 = 8.05i.5 The chain conformation is a left-handed, six-fold helix with 0-6 in the position Bauche to both 0-5 and C-4. The water molecules are located inside the helical channel of the amylose and in the interstitial spaces, forming an intensive hydrogen-bonded network. Starch has been degraded by plasma and thermolysis in the ionization chamber of a mass spectrometer, and the s u g h and oligosaccharides formed were characterized by direct chemical ionization mass spectrometry.6 The technique, especially with negative ions, extends mass spectrometry to polymers. The molecular-size distribution of modified corn starch has
22
Carbohydrate Chemistry
been determined by size-exclusion chromatography. The high performance liquid chromatography of malto-oligosaccharides has been reported. The degree of mechanical damage imparted to starch granules during flour milling has been correlated with various absorbancies in the near -infrared reflectance spectrum. The wavelengths of importance corresponded to overtones and combinations of vibration frequencies due to free and hydrogen-bonded hydroxy groups in the starch. A resonance Raman spectroscopic study has been made of the blue Similar spectra were colouring of iodine/iodide in amylose.l o obtained regardless of the KI and I 2 concentrations, degree of polymerization, and excitation wavelengths, but the relative intensities of the lines changed. It was concluded that the basic unit changed from 162- to I 2- through I s2- with decreasing KI concentration. A simple straight-line relationship has been obtained between average chain length of linear amyloglucans and extent of iodine staining." The wavelength of maximal optical absorbance, the maximal absorbance,and the iodine-binding capacity per chain are all linearly related to the chain length. The sorption of water and water-soluble alcohols by starch granules in aqueous suspension has been studied,and potato and corn starches absorb 33 and 28% water, respectively, at pH 7.'* The method was not suitable for cationic starches. Alcohols were also absorbed in large amounts. The kinetics of adsorption of 2,3-dialdehydostarch can be expressed by an exponential equation uniform heterogeneous which is applicable for energetically cellulose surfaces.13 The activation energy did not depend on the initial concentration of starch in solution but increased linearly with the increased amount of starch adsorbed. Some physicochemical properties of heat-moisture treatment of starches have been determined. The water-binding capacity and enzyme susceptibility increased, while the swelling power decreased. The starches with the highest moisture content before heating had the lowest swelling powers. The same treatments had adverse effects on the functional properties and baking potential o f the starches.15 An enzymatic and an acidic hydrolysis procedure have been compared f o r the analysis of starch in feeds and digesta.16 Comparable results were obtained for purified starches and feeds with high starch contents. Only in treated materials like digesta

with more than 17% cellulose did problems arise due to hydrolysis of cellulose by the acidic treatment. The enzymes do not need to be highly purified to be used in starch determination even in the presence of cellulose and hemicelluloses. A series of n.m.r. spectra of whole seeds of various types have been obtained by using cross-polarization magic-angle spinning techniques. Selected signals provided a means of comparing the protein content relative to the starch content within a group of seed varieties. The multi-branched nature of amylose samples from several plant sources has been revealed by methods for estimating reducing and non-reducing residues. The isoamylase of a Pseudomonas partially split the branch linkage in potato amylose. The concurrent action of pullulanase from Aerobacter and @-amylase from sweet potato hydrolysed the amylose completely. An enzymatic method of determining the A and B chains in amylopectin has led to a ratio of 1 : 1 , not 2:l as previously suggested. 2o Partial debranching with pullulanase gave results A chains are consistent with earlier suggestions that predominantly and selectively removed by this enzyme. The changes in physicochemical properties of starches isolated from maize, barley,and triticale grains which had been allowed to sprout for various lengths of time have been determined.2’ The water-binding capacity initially decreased but then increased with increasing time whereas swelling power decreased and solubilities and enzyme susceptibilities both increased with time, A procedure adapted for the rapid analysis of total starch and amylose has been used on a series of 37 barley genotypes.22 The amylose content was not related to either starch content or grain yield. Investigations of the starch granules of wheat throughout their development have suggested that there are two distinct populations of granules which are initiated at separate stages of kernel d e v e l ~ p m e n t . ~This ~ theory was supported by results using a Coulter counter as well as light and electron microscopy and chemical analysis. In studies on the characterization of legume starches, the fine structures of amylose and amylopectin have been determined by the use of pullulanase, 6-amylase, and glucoamylase .24 The results indicated tbat there were some 1+6 substituted a-D-glucopyranosyl residues in amylose. Similar studies were carried out on

acid-treated starches.25 A fast hydrolysis of amorphous and gel phases occurred with a slow hydrolysis of crystalline regions. The results were consistent with the structure being a cluster type In attempts to separate the starch and protein fractions of legumes, the starch fraction was found to contain between 7.7 and 20.1% protein while the protein fraction contained 0.0-4.6% starch.2 6 During germination of dry beans at 22OC, the total starch, amylose, and amylopectin contents all declined over the first 6-day period when the amy1ose:amylopectin ratio also declined.27 The solubility and swelling characteristics of the starch from the Great Northern bean have been found to be both temperature and pH dependent. 2 8 The solubility was highest at pH 6.0. Oxidation increased the solubility as a function of temperature whereas acetylation decreased the solubility. Acetylation and oxidation both reduced the swelling while addition of free fatty acids reduced the viscosity and raised the gelatinization temperature. The gelatinization temperature of the starch from the winged bean was 60-70°C and it exhibited single-stage swelling and low s ~ l u b i l i t y . ~It ~ was very soluble in DMSO and had an amylose content of 38.5%. The gelatinized starch was more susceptible to a-amylase and glucoamylase than the native starch. The morphological and physicochemical properties of starch from mature green and ripe bananas have been deter~nined.~' The granules were irregularly shaped with spheroid and elongated forms predominating. Other parameters were similar to those of the starch from mung beans. The starch from mature, unripe breadfruit has been isolated and characterized by the use of pullulanase and The @-amylase followed by gel-permeat ion chromatography. granules were 10-20 pm in size with an amylose content of 18.2% and 8-amylolysis limit of 58%. The debranched amylopectin had chains of 15 and 38-45 residues,respectively, in the ratio 4.4:l. The relationships between contents of dry matter, starch, total fermentables, and specific gravity in cassava storage roots have = a been determined.32 A curvilinear relationship of the form + 5 was found to exist between dry matter and starch content and a similar one for specific gravity and starch. The native starch from fermented cocoa beans has been isolated by solvent extraction and flocculation of non-starch material at pH 2.7.33 The egg-shaped granules had a mean size of 4 . 4 pm, an

amylose content of 30.4%, a gelatinization temperature of 52.5in 1M KOH. 68°C and a limiting viscosity number of 166.2 ml l'g Kuzu starch contains 21% amylose and 124 mg kg-' p h o ~ p h o r u s . ~ ~ The B-amylolysis limits of the amylose and amylopectin were 76 and 57, respectively, with 20.5 being the average chain length of the amylopectin. The granules were of the Ca crystalline type. A non-aqueous procedure, using glycerol and 3-chloro-1,2-propanediol, has been developed for the isolation from maize of starch granules with associated metabolite^.^^ Electron microscopy failed to demonstrate the presence of the amyloplast's membrane but it may be dried onto the granule surface. Soluble metabolites were found which may derive from the stroma of amyloplasts. The distribution of starch components of maize (Zea mays) and their properties have been investigated by gel filtration after debranching and by exhaustive hydrolysis of the granules with glucoamylase .36 Based on the results, the relationship between genotypes and properties of starch components was discussed. For gene produced example, introduction of the amylose-extender ( E ) amylopectins of longer average chain lengths. The starch and phytoglycogen fractions from normal and sugary (E) maize have been compared, and negligible differences were observed between 2 inbred lines and 2 9~ conversions of the lines studied.37 The phytoglycogen was shown to be distributed in a soluble fraction and a particulate fraction which also contained some amylose. These observations are consistent with a pattern of conversion of starch into phytoglycogen in endosperm. The starch of wild rice (Zizania aquatica) has been isolated and is a very small granule (2-7 urn) of angular and polygonal shape.38 It has an A-type pattern on X-ray diffraction but an amylose content of only 2%. Other properties were compared with those of wheat starch. Normal- and waxy-type starches have been isolated from two types of Amaranthus hypochondriacus and found to be round granules ( 1 urn diameter) with similar X-ray diffraction diagrams to other A-types. 39 The amylose contents were 1 4 and O%, respectively,while the amylopectins were similar to those from rice and maize starches. The elephant yam (Amorphophallus campanulatus) has yielded a starch which exhibited single-stage swelling and moderate solubility in water but low resistance to solubilization in

DMS0.40 The amylose content was 24.5%. The amylolytic susceptibility of the native starch was low but that of the gelatinized starch was high. Oxidation of malto-oligosaccharides has yielded the series of oligomers with aldonolactones at the reducing end position and these give diamides with alkylenediamines in 30-755 yield.41 The effect of these derivatives on the enzymatic activity of potato phosphorylase was determined. The digestion of hydroxypropyl wheat starches by porcine pancreatic a-amylase has been examined.42 The digestibility of the of gelatinized starches decreased with increasing degree substitution, and the action pattern favoured a non-repetitive attack whereas the digestibility of the native starches increased with extent of modification. The hydrolysates from the above digestion of starches with degrees of substitution from 0-0.17 were separated into total digest, oligo- and polysaccharide fractions and further analysed .43 Increasing the degree of substitution caused a reduction in the reducing value, an increase in the average degree of polymerization, and a greater proportion of oligosaccharides in the hydrolysate. The oligosaccharide fraction had double the hydroxypropyl content of the undigested starch. The oligosaccharide fraction was further analysed by h.p. 1.c. on a u-BondapakR carbohydrate column .44 The proportion of oligosaccharides with three and four ;-glucose residues increased and those with five !-glucose residues decreased as the degree of substitution increased. The changes in molecular weight of amylose and amylopectin during thermal dispersion in water have been followed by paper Grain disaggregation and mo lecular chromatography.4 5 disintegration of amylopectin proceeded more rapidly than in amylose. The effect of sodium hydroxide was more marked on amylose than amylopectin. Aqueous suspensions of starch at neutral pH values were heated by microwave energy in sealed tubes.46 The colour of the hydrolysates darkened with increasing time and pressure. The total acidity increased and oligosaccharides in the range monomer to octamer were determined. The amounts of glyceraldehyde, dihydroxyacetone, and 2-hydroxyl,+propanedial induced in maize starch by Y-radiation have been determined by a g.c. procedure,and the influence of several .parameters such as dose and temperature has been in~estigated.~’

This is the first report of 2-hydroxy-1,3-propanedial from irradiated starch. The influence of the polysaccharide structure on the oxidation process with Ce4+, Mn3+, and V 5 + ions has been studied,and it was confirmed that the rates were highest for compounds containing a-glycol groups.48 The nature of the functional groups and the conformation of the macromolecular unit exert an influence on the oxidation rate. An enzymatic procedure has been developed to measure starch in cereal product^.^' The precision of the test is 2 1.5% and is applicable to a wide range of products. The amylases from pearl millet have an action pattern similar to those of other cereal a-amylases but are able to hydrolyse wheat starch more readily than millet starch.50 The immature wheat endosperm aleurone with seed coat and embryo detached has produced considerably less a-amylase activity than immature whole or de-embryonated wheat kernels. The isoenzyme composition of the incubated endosperm aleurone was unique suggesting that the seed coat may contain factors required for normal a-amylase isoenzyme synthesis. An enzymatic assay for the determination of a-amylase in serum has been developed which employs maltoheptaose as substrate and a coupled enzymatic indicator system.52 H.p.1.c. was used to establish the action pattern of hydrolysis of the maltoheptaose. The stoichiometric equations for the action of a-amylase alone and a-amylase and a-glucosidase together were derived. The multiple-attack model for the kinetics of hog pancreatic a-amylase action has been a n a l y ~ e d . ~The ~ model explains the dependence of ,V and 2 on the degree of polymerization of substrates. The distribution in the degree of polymerization of the hydrolysis products has been used to calculate the number of unitary movements of the enzyme during the single enzymesubstrate meeting. A mixture of 6-amylase and pullulanase from Bacillus cereus has been used to produce maltose from a variety of starches which had previously been liquefied by the a-amylase of Bacillus ~ u b t i l i s . ~ ~ The maximum yield was 87-88% obtained at pH 6.0-8.0, 55"C,and 30h hydrolysis of a 5% solution. Similar results were obtained if acidic conditions were used for the liquefaction. Two inbred lines of rye (Secale cereale), whose kernels had only 1-3% of the 6-amylase activity of normal lines, have been

investigated using an anti-wheat B-amylase immune serum which cross-reacted with the rye enzyme.55 The results indicated that the reduced activity was due neither to the presence of an inhibitor nor to the production of inactive enzymes. An inducible cell-bound glucoamylase, which degrades cyclodextrins, has been isolated from a Flavobacterium species. 56 The final degradation product in all cases was ;-glucose with small amounts of maltose. Amylopectin and glycogen were very poor substrates. The enzymes of starch metabolism in the developing grains of a high-lysine barley mutant have been determir~ed.~’The activity of ADP-E-g1ucose:starch synthetase was lower while those of UDP-Eglucose-pyrophosphorylase and starch phosphorylase were higher than in normal barley. The structural changes in starch molecules during malting of barley have been investigated by comparing a normal malt where 14% of the starch had been lost with an over-modified malt where 68% of the starch had been lost.58 In the normal malt, 14% of the large granules were eroded but the small granules remained intact whereas 38% of the large granules were eroded in the over-modified malt with a marked reduction in the small granules. Malting resulted in an apparent increase in the amylose content. There was no apparent difference in the amylopectin structure between the two malts. A reduction in light intensity during starch synthesis in developing wheat grains has reduced the starch synthetase I activity but not the starch phosphorylase activity. 59 The low starch production was not due to an insufficient supply of assimilates. [ 35S]-Methionine has been incorporated into B-amylase from germinating rice seeds.60 The specific radioactivity of the enzyme derived from scutellum was significantly greater than that from the endosperm. These results indicate that, at the onset of germination, 6-amylase is synthesized in the scutellum and only at a later stage is an inactive, latent form of the enzyme activated in the endosperm. This latter form becomes dominant during the later stages of germination. The role of the recessive amylose-extender ( E ) allele in the biosynthesis of maize starch has been investigated.61 Multiple forms of starch synthetase were observed, some of them appearing at the same time as the rapid increase in amylose content. The
29
3: Plant and Algal Polysaccharides
presence of modified amylopectin synthesized by the enzymes which were affected by the ae allele was suggested. Debranching of these amylopectins followed by analysis of the products was attempted to confirm this theory, but the results were inconclusive. Starch granule-bound D-glucan synthetase has been isolated from cotton leaves.63 On further separation, amylopectin was the only glycosidically linked with protein and this had E-glucan Q-glucan synthetase activity. The amylose component was free from covalently bound protein. On germination, both in the dark and light, a DMSO-soluble P-glucan is synthesized in the cotyledons of lupins .64 Chemical analysis indicated that it was starch-like but its chromatographic behaviour differed from that of amylopectin. The concentrations of starch synthetase and debranching enzyme from developing seeds of Pisum sativum have been mea~ured.'~ Primed starch synthetase activity increased from day 8 to day 14 after anthesis but then decreased by 50% at 26 days,whereas citrate-stimulated starch synthetase activity was highest at 10 days after anthesis thereafter falling to a low value. Debranching activity increased from day 8 to day 18 after anthesis. The changes in starch synthetase and debranching activity resulted from changes in the concentration of a few enzyme forms and not from the appearance of different enzyme forms. The @-amylase activities of some soybean varieties are times lower than others yet they have similar starch metabolism. It was therefore concluded that starch metabolism was independent of the 8-amylase activity. The starch contents of plantains and bananas, ripened under similar conditions, have been determined with a content of 1% in ripe bananas and 9% in ripe plantain^.'^ These values fell to zero and 3%,respectively,in over-ripe material. Phosphorylase I1 from potato tubers has been purified and characterized.68 No separation of primed from unprimed activity was achieved. The molecular weight was 9.6 x l o 4 and the native enzyme was a dimer. The reaction product was a protein-bound P-glucan which possessed long ( 1+4)-a-E-glucan chains. 6 9 Since protein was also present in amylose from potato starch grains, it is suggested that these findings may be further evidence of a from a precursor common biosynthetic pathway for (1+4)-a-D-glucans protein. The rate of starch breakdown in isolated chloroplasts from

spinach is similar to that found in whole leaves. These rates have been measured both in the dark and in light and compared with the rates of starch synthesis in the light.’l’ Illumination has little inhibitory effect on breakdown at high phosphate levels but 67% inhibition was observed at low phosphate levels. Since C02 evolution is prevented by illumination, the oxidative pentose phosphate pathway must have been inhibited. The balance between accumulation and breakdown is very sensitive to the rate at which carbon is withdrawn from the chloroplast in exchange for inorganic phosphate. The unusually high solution torque developed by the starch from the Hinoat variety of oats when a hot paste is cooled to 75-80°C has been abolished in the presence of acetic acid at pH 3.0.’12 Salts at 0.1M concentration reduced the torque value as did increasing sucrose concentrations. The gelatinization of wheat starch as modified by xanthan, guar and cellulose gums has been investigated and each gum hastens the onset of initial paste viscosity.’13 The reaction seemed to be a strong association with the amylose component since the B-amylolysis limit of the amylose is reduced. The starch-xanthan gum exhibited a pseudoplastic behaviour whereas the starch-guar gum resisted shearing at low shear rates. The syneresis of curdlan gel has been repressed by the addition of starch before heating but not by other sugars.74 The role of starch in this process was discussed. A number of starch esters of herbicides have been prepared from activated pregelatinized starch and evaluated as slow release agents.’15 With sterile soil a picloram ester was phytotoxic for 48 days. Unmodified starch esters were hydrolysed at a slower rate than gelatinized starch esters. A Flavobacterium from tap water was able to grow on tap water but the addition of starch greatly enhanced its growth.76 X-Ray and neutron-diffraction studies on hexa-amylose hexahydrate crystal forms A and B have given an indication of the chain-like and circular arrangement of hydrogen bonds within the molecules. ’17 In the circles, homodromic and antidromic orientations of the hydrogen bonds are observed, with the homodromic circles being more stable by 8% per hydrogen bond. The changes in electronic charges on H and 0 atoms are greater in homodromic circles and the dipole moments are only ~2.30 in the chain-like and antidromic homodromic circles but 6-8D in

arrangements. -X-Ray analysis of the hexa-amylose-3-nitroaniline ( 1 : l ) hexahydrate complex has shown that the hexa-amylose molecules are stacked along the z-axis in a head-to-tail fashion to form a channel-type structure .78 A stereo-drawing of the packing feature of the complex with its associated water molecules was shown. Similar studies have been conducted on the hexa-amylose-benzaldehyde ( 1 : l ) hexahydrate complex and a similar packing was observed with the hexa-amylose molecule being tilted at 11.5" against the channel axis." The benzene ring is inserted into the hexa-amylose ring from the secondary hydroxy side while the carbonyl group is in Van der Waals contact with the primary hydroxy side of the next hexa-amylose molecule. A correlation between the penetration depth of the C atoms of a variety of phenols in the cavity of hexa-amyloseand the changes in chemical shifts has been investigated.80 The their 1 3 C n.m.r. formation and molecular dynamics of cycloamylose inclusion complexes with phenylalanine have been investigated by 1 3 C n.m.r. spectroscopy.8 The influence of the cavity size was determined and the cyclohepta-amylose-phenylalanine system was most strongly coupled. The cyclohexa-amylose coupling was shallow and loose while that of the octa-amylose was deep and loose. The induced c.d. and U.V. spectra ofhepta-amylose-disubstituted benzene systems has been studied with respect to their molecular structures.82 The dipole moment was correlated with rotational intensity and the energy-level transition calculated by molecular orbital methods. The use of a hexa-amylose mobile phase in the separation of mono-substi tuted phenols by t .I. c. has been reported .83 The llf values depended on both the structural features of the phenolic compounds and the concentration of hexa-amylose in the mobile phase. A selective attack of dichlorocarbene at the 4-position of phenolate ion was achieved with hexa-amylose as catalyst.84 The mechanism was studied by lH and 13C n.m.r. spectroscopy.

Steric interactions of the substituents and the exanomeric effect were believed to be responsible for the observed conformational differences. An invertase and an inulase from germinating garlic (Allium sativum) bulbs have been separated and purified.86 The invertase had no effect on inulin whereas the inulase, as well as hydrolysing inulin, could hydrolyse sucrose and raffinose. The enzymes had similar molecular weights (7.6 x l o 4 ) . In the early stages of development the activities increased in paralle1,but at later stages the invertase activity was higher. A pathway for fructan trisaccharide synthesis from sucrose has been reported.87 Two non-reducing hexasaccharides ( 1 ) and (2) have been isolated from the roots of Asparagus officinalis and their structures confirmed by the usual methods.88 A novel tetrasaccharide ( 3 ) has been isolated from Chinese milk vetch honey.89 It is probably synthesised 2 erlose which is produced from sucrose in nectar.
4 Cellulose A history of the study of cellulose structure has been published which also considered how this knowledge has been extended to synthetic polymers. A hydrate of cellulose I1 has been prepared and its crystal structure determined.91 The unit cell contains disaccharide sections of two chains,and an antiparallel arrangement of adjacent chains was assumed. The chains are stacked in the same way as in cellulose I1 with the water molecules between the stacks,but it was not possible to position the water molecules in a regular arrangement. The treatment of cotton and rayon with ethylenediamine resulted in the transformation of cellulose IV to cellulose I11 as determined by X-ray analy~is.’~ Thus ethylenediamine-methanol can affect lattice modifications. The transformation of cellulose I into cellulose I11 in Valonia macrophysa, preformed in ethylenediamine, has maintained the external appearance of the microfibrils as shown by electron microscopy. 93 This conversion must have involved a fracturing and fibrillation of the initial crystals. ‘ H n.m.r. spectroscopy has shown that both ramie and cotton of native have a unique phase structure characteristic

An n.m.r. spectroscopic study of the interactions between cadoxen and cellulose has been carried out using signals from 'H, 13C, and 113Cd.95 A well recorded 13C spectrum was obtained which could be assigned by comparison with the spectra of simpler sugars. The 13Cd and 13C results were not consistent with the formation of chelate-alcoholate complexes with the C-2 and C-3 hydroxy groups. Hydrogen bonding is probably the dominant interaction. It is further suggested that the metal ion serves the dual purpose of holding two amino groups in a favourable orientation to hydrogen bond with a pair of equatorial hydroxy groups on the cellulose. The solubilization of cellulose and other plant structural carbohydrates has been achieved in a mixture of 4-methylmorpholine g-oxide and DMSO.' The separation and purification of homogeneous polgsaccharide fractions could then be made. Hydroxymethylcellulose has been prepared and characterized by i.r. and n.m.r. s p e c t r o s ~ o p y . ~To ~ achieve dissolution of cellulose, a high degree of molecular substitution was required, but once solution was achieved the molecular substitution could be lowered, the actual value of precipitation depending on the solvent. A rapid separation of cello-oligosaccharides (degree of polymerization 2-9) has been obtained on a cation-exchange resin in 60 min with water as eluant.98 The cellulose content of raw and cooked vegetables has been determined by extraction procedures using detergent solutions.9 9 The U.V. spectra of extracts of hydrocellulose with the hydroxides of Li', Na', K ' , Ca2+, Sr2+,and Ba2+ were identical."' The curves of yellowing absorption coefficients against loss in weight of hydrocellulose in boiling solutions of these alkalis were linear, the slopes giving apparent molar absorption coefficients in the order Na+= K+>Li+>Ba2+>Sr2+>Ca2+.The divalent cations reduced the yield of chromogen from the 4-deoxy-~-glycero-2,3-hexodiulose released from reducing end groups of the hydrocellulose. In the same systems, greater weight losses and production of acidity were obtained with the alkalineearth cations than alkali-metal cations when the OH- ion

concentration was 0.02M while the reverse was found at 1.OM. l o ' The results were explained in terms of a hypothesis that divalent cations exercise their catalytic effects through enhanced ionization of the ;-glucose moiety at the reducing terminus of cellulose chains. The selectivity (viscosity at a given Kappa number) of softwood Kraft pulp has been shown to increase dramatically when soaked with S02-H20 in the presence of diethylenetriaminepentamethylene phosphonic acid before oxygen bleaching in the presence of magnesium sulphate. O 2 Addition of manganese(VI1) sulphate to soaked pulps led to a severe loss in selectivity while to dry pulps a slight increase was obtained. Addition of the phosphonic acid to manganese(VI1)-treated pulps caused a large increase in selectivity. Aqueous sulphur dioxide treatment of cellulose pulp of and cotton linters dramatically reduced the degree polymerization of the cellulose but did not affect its enzymatic digestibility or decrease its crystallinity as previously reported. 1 0 3 The acetyl content of cellulose acetate and a variety of woods has been determined by aminolysis with pyrrolidine followed by g.c. of the resultant I-acetylpyrrolidine. O 4 The distribution of the sulphate ester groups in the natural cellulose sulphate of Buccinum undatum has been determined by 1 3 C n.m.r.; the results were compared with those from a randomly The relative substituted synthetic cellulose sulphate.' O5 simplicity of the natural cellulose sulphate spectrum indicated that this polymer consisted of blocks of disulphated (1+4)-B-;-glucan chains separated by blocks of unsulphated chains. (1+4)-~-Q-glucan A variety of sulphoalkylcelluloses have been synthesized in NaOH solutions at 65°C. l o 6 Increasing temperature and NaOH concentrations increased the sulphoalkylation as well as the yield of water- and alkali-soluble fractions. The relative oxyanion formation at hydroxy groups of q-glucosides and cellulose has been reviewed O7 Native cellulose and pulps from a variety of hardwoods have been fractionated by the nitric acid rnethod.'O8 A regression analysis showed a direct correlation between the age of the tree and the degree of polymerization of the cellulose.

larger average particle sizes and broader size distributions than those obtained by hydrolytic degradation.l o g Microcrystallization of bleached sulphate pulp from beechwood and reed increased the crystallinity index from 66 to 71% and 56 to 61%, respectively, as determined by X-ray analysis, but decreased the yield from 86 to 75% and 74 to 67%, respectively.'" The average length of the microcrystalline pulp fibres was 55 um compared with 220 urn for the control fibres. By the use of polarizing microscopy, the microfibrils in the spherulites formed in the pellicle of bacterial cellulose have been shown to be radially or tangentially orientated. Some of the results indicated that the initial stage of nucleation may be a function of intermediate lipid-carbohydrate compounds as in the lyotropic liquid crystal of the soap micelle. When virulent strains of Agrobacterium tumefaciens bind to carrot cell walls, fibrils develop which surround the bacteria and anchor them to the cell surface.'12 The fibrils are composed of cellulose and are synthesized by the bacteria since they are produced on dead as well as living carrot cells. Within this entrapped mass, the bacteria are still able to multiply and form large clusters. On pyrolysis of cellulose under various conditions, 82 compounds have been identified as volatile product^."^ The maximum yield in a nitrogen atmosphere was achieved at 600-650°C while in air a 50-200°C lower temperature was required. The volatile products were qualitatively similar to those found in cigarette smoke. Combined q.c. gas-phase thermal fragmentation has been developed for the separation and identification of pyrolysis The compounds were products from bark polysaccharides.' identified by their fragmentation pattern which was useful in demonstrating the thermal stability of the parent compounds. Various polymer initiating systems, especially redox systems involving cerium(II1) and iron(I1) salts,had little effect on the thermal properties of cotton cellulose.' l 5 The cellulose from Acetobacter xylinum has been used for visualizing the action of the cellulase enzyme system from Trichoderma reesei by high-resolution electron microscopy.' l 6 The enzymes initially bind to the cellulose ribbon, but within 10 min the ribbon is split along its longitudinal axis into bundles of microfibrils which are thinned until they are dissolved,which takes about 30 min. Separation of the various enzyme components

produced less dramatic changes confirming the synergistic mode of action of these enzymes. The cellulase from T. viride has been immobilized on SepharoseR 4B.l17 The immobilized enzyme had a similar Km to the free enzyme, the activity increased up to 50°C and did not decrease after 4 cycles of batch use and recovery. Treatment of finely divided Pinus densiflora with the cellulase from T. viride at 40°C and pH 4.0 resulted in hydrolysis of 80-90% of the carbohydrate present .I18 A series of mono- and oligo-saccharides were obtained from bagasse and pith by cellulase hydrolysis."' The presence of pentoses and their oligosaccharides in hydrolysates of alkali-treated bagasse showed that hemicelluloses had not been completely removed by this treatment. The action of the cellulase from Penicillium funiculosum on a variety of cellulosic substrates has been investigated by scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction analysis. 120 The differences were interpreted in terms of the a-cellulose content, surface area, degree of crystallinity, and crystallite dimensions of the substrate. The kinetics of hydrolysis of ball-milled cotton linters by eight cellulase complexes from Trichoderma, Geotrichum, and Asperuillus species have been studied under steady-state and nonThe steady-state rate of D-glucose steady-state conditions. 12' formation was proportional to the endo-(1-+4)-B-D-glucanase content. A mechanism was proposed in which the enzyme which first attacks the insoluble substrate is this m - P - g l u c a n a s e . This contradicts the accepted view for a prehydrolytic C1 enzyme. The C 1 role is filled by the endo-g-glucanase. Partial acid hydrolysis has been investigated as a pretreatment to enhance the enzymatic hydrolysis of cellulosic materials. 2 2 Up to 100% of the potential E-glucose could be obtained,and this was due to removal of hemicellulose, reduction in the degree of polymerization, and changes in the crystal structure of the cellulose. The purification of a cellulase isoenzyme from kidney bean abscission zones has been carried out by affinity chromatography. 1 2 3 Antibodies raised against this cellulase (PI = 9.5) did not react with the cellulase (PI = 4.5) obtained from 2,bE-treated abscission zones. examined, only 3 1 were Of 60 species of soil fungi

It is concluded that polymerization and crystallization are cell-directed, coupled processes and that the rate of crystallization determines the rate of polymerization. Coupling must be maintained for biogenesis of cellulose I. Addition of coumarin (1 g kg-') to Phaseolus vulgaris leaves inhibited the synthesis of cellulose I but stimulated the synthesis of a-cel1ulose.l3' A persisting cellulosic wall has been demonstrated by light microscopy in microspore mother cells during microsporogenesis in Allium tuberosum and Cyclamen persicum. 1 3 2 Cellulose metabolism by the flagellate Trichonympha, isolated from a termite, has been studied.'33 The protozoon, in culture, harboured no endosymbiotic bacteria and produced acetate, CO,, and H, from cellulose. The cellulolytic activity is therefore an inherent property. A new method of determining the extent of binding of an ionic dye to a polyelectrolyte in solution has used the fact that dyes can adsorb to a cellulose dialysis membrane.'34 The permeability of cellulosic walls to macromolecules may

limit the ability of enzymes to alter the properties of these walls. 135 Since proteins of molecular weight 6 x lo4 can permeate a substantial portion of the wall, previous results may have underestimated this property. The fermentation of cellulose by Acetivibrio cellulolyticus, Methanosarcina barkeri, and a Desulphovibrio species has been culture allowed a rapid studied. 3 6 Only a three-component conversion to C02 and CH4 and utilized 85% of the cellulose present. This value was increased to 90% by increasing the concentrations of M. barkeri.
5 Hemicelluloses
A number of sugar residues were found in hydrolysates of the water-soluble hemicelluloses of rice brans. 3 7 Although L-arabinose was the major sugar residue, there was no direct evidence for the presence of an L-arabinan. The intracellular site of the synthesis of 4-arabinose-containing cell-wall precursors in suspension-cultured tobacco cells has been determined as the Golgi bodies with transport being vesicles in the low-density fraction.1 3 8 A D-galactan has been isolated from the leaves of Aloe barbadensis by hot-water extraction and separation from contaminating pectin, ;-gluco-q-mannan, and 4-arabinan. 1 3 ’ The (l+4)-linked ;-galactan had one branch point at 0-6 for every 26 residueq and the molecular weight of the acetylated polysaccharide was 3.7 x 104. The formation of monodispersed polysaccharides on Smith degradation of the acidic k-arabino-;-galactan from rapeseed (Brassica campestris) strongly suggests a molecular structure composed of regularly repeated subunits. 1 4 * The molecular weight of the subunit was 1.2 x lo4 and the resistance of the polysaccharide to subsequent Smith degradations suggested that the main chain was a (1*3)-?-galactan. An 4-arabino-2-galactan-protein has been released by sonication of a crude cell organelle fraction from hypocotyl tissue of bean seedlings (Phaseolus vulj?aris) and suspension cultured cells. 1 4 ’ The macromolecule (mol. wt. 1.4 x l o 5 ) contained 90% carbohydrate and 10% protein with the major sugar residues being ;-galactose, L-arabinose,and uronic acids and the major amino-acids present being k-hydroxyproline, &-serine,and L-alanine.

The changes in the 5-arabino-q-galactan-proteins of the carrot have been studied during germination and growth.143 An extracellular k-arabino-8-galactan-protein has been obtained from suspension-cultured tobacco cells. 44 The complex (mol. wt. 2.24 x l o 5 ) contained 5.5% protein and the sugar moiety was a A B-q-glucopyranosyluronic typical L-arabino-(1+3)-8-galactan. acid residue was present at the non-reducing terminus attached to 0-6 of a P-galactopyranosyl residue. Auxin-induced changes in the sugar composition, intrinsic weight distribution of matrix viscosity, and molecular polysaccharides in the epicotyl cell wall of Vigna angularis have been determined. 1 4 5 The greatest change was the reduction in 4-arabino-q-galactan content, but other changes in pectin and E-xylo-g-glucan content were also observed. The linkage regions in cell walls of rice coleoptiles have been characterized as involving 0 _ 3 - ~ - g a l a c t o p y r a n o s y l - ~ - s e r i n e and N4 - ( 2-ac etam i do 2- d eoxy- B -E- g1ucopyran0s y1 ) hydrogen LThe linkage region in the water-soluble asparaginate. 1 4 6 4-arabino-E-galactan-protein complex from wheat endosperm has been characterized as g4 B ga1acto p yrano s y1 4 -trans hyd ro xy proline. 14' Methylation analysis of the glycopeptide linkage region from cell walls of Chlamydomonas reinhardii has revealed that g-glycosidically linked g-galactofuranosyl residues are present. 1 48 Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron, a polgsaccharide degrading bacterium from the human colon,can use larch L-arabino-;-galactan as its carbon source with yields similar to those obtained on p-glucose. 149 The crystal structure of a regenerated form of (1+3)-a-D-glucan has been determined by X-ray diffraction analysis and stereochemical model refinement as an orthorhombic unit cell. 50 The chain conformation is almost completely extended and is very close to a 2/1 helix even though the dimer residue is the crystallographic repeat unit.

The specificity of the interaction of direct dyes with polysaccharides has been studied by changes in solubility and in the fluorescence and absorption spectra of the dyes.’52 The strongest interactions were shown by polysaccharides with (l+4)-linked-B-Q-glucopyranosyl residues, but contiguous (1+3)-8-P-glucans exhibited some complex formation. Dyes differed in their affinity. The direct dye, Calcofluor, has been used in a fluorimetric assay for (1+3)(1+4)-B-D-glucans in beer, wort, malt, and barley. The B-E-glucan content of developing and germinating kernels of several varieties of barley has been determined 5 4 The E-glucan content varied considerably but did not seem to be related to the B-g-glucanase activity of the variety. A g-glucan is present in the cotyledons of Mirabilis jalapa seeds.155 Methylation, periodate oxidation, and graded and enzymatic hydrolysis studies have indicated 34 (l+4)- and 3 ( l + 3 ) linkages for every 38 ;-glucose residues. The branch point appears at 0-2. In some places, at least three (1+3)-linked P-glucopyranosyl residues are in sequence. Both a and 8-glycosidic linkages are present. The hemicellulose fraction accounted for 47% of the pollen tube wall of Camellia japonica and comprised essentially c-glucose The polysaccharide had a ( 1 +3)-B-;-glucan chain with residues. 15‘ a degree of polymerization of 21. The pollen tube wall of C. sasanqua, C. sinensis, Tulipa gesneriana,and Lilium longiflorum also consisted mostly of ;-glucose residues,and the hemicellulose fractions were essentially pure D - g l u c a n ~ . ’ ~The ~ deposition of (1+3)-8-;-glucan during megagametogenesis in two species of Oenothera is partly in continuum with the wall and partly in the degenerating cytoplasm. The addition of B-g-glucanase before the use of u-amylase has been used to aid filtration in the measurement of fibre contents by detergent procedures. 59 The fact that fungal g-glucans will stimulate soybeans to accumulate phytoalexins has prompted an investigation into the (1+3)-B-~-glucanases and B-P-glucosidases of soybean and their hydrolytic patterns.16’ The B-9-glucosylase I enzyme has been purified. Several lines of evidence suggest that the

(1+3)-8-;-glucanase and 8-P-glucosidase activities exhibited by I preparations are catalysed by the same enzyme. B-g-glucosylase Treatment of the 2-glucan elicitor from the walls of Phytophthora megasperma by E-glucosylase I results in extensive hydrolysis and loss of 94% of its activity.lbl It is unlikely that some other enzyme(s) may be involved in the overall reaction. The endo- and exo-8-P-glucanases from Zea mays have been partially purified. l b 2 The endo-8-q-glucanase (mol. wt. 2.6 x lo4> showed a marked preference for substrates with mixed linkages,and it probably initiated the solubilization of wall g-glucan. The exo-8-E-glucanase (mol. wt. 6.0 x lo4) was required for extensive hydrolysis in vitro. During coleoptile development, the autolytic activity of the cell wall increased dramatically but did not parallel the growth potential of the tissue. Conditions which induce a transmembrane electrical potential, positive with respect to the inside of the membrane vesicles, have resulted in a 4-12-fold stimulation of the activity of membraneassociated 8-q-glucan synthetases in a preparation from developing cotton (Gossypium hirsutum) fibres.1 6 3 The products were mainly (1+3)-8-;-glucans but some increase in (1-+4)-B-D-glucan content was also found. No (1+4)-a-q-glucan was formed. The products of 8-q-glucan synthetases have been characterized using specific -9-glucan hydrolases. 6 4 The B-Q-glucan synthesis by particulate enzymes from suspension-cultured endosperm cell walls from ryegrass has been studied. 6 5 The 8-E-glucan synthetase activity of the fungus Saprolemia monoica has been assayed and a product is observed which contains The both 1 +3- and 1 -+blinked B-g-glucopyranosyl residues. 6 6 presence of Mg2+ ions affects the structure of the product. In the absence of Mg2+, only a (1-+3)-8-P-glucan is formed, but as the substrate concentration is reduced and Mg2+ ion concentration is increased the proportion of lj3-linked residues in the product is reduced and a pure ( 1-+4)-B-Q-glucan is formed. High molecular weight E-glucans have been isolated from mycelial walls of Fusarium oxysporum.' 6 7 The P-glucans contained both 1+3- and 1-+6-linked residues in contrast to the E-glucans from Colletotrichum lindemuthianum, which contained 1+3- and 1-+4-linkedresidues. However, the two types of 9-glucans had very similar effects in eliciting browning and phytoalexin production in green-bean cotyledons. An exo-(l+3)-B-;-glucanase derived from Sclerotinia libertiana

The metabolism of a e-glucan from the cactus Opuntia bigelovii has been studied in a desert en~ir0nment.l~’The D-glucan content increased slightly during a 9-week drought period but then decreased during the irrigation period. The ;-glucan is probably storage material. The g-xylo-;-glucan from the walls of etiolated mung beans has been studied by acidic and enzymatic hydrolyses, the latter by a preparation from Aspergillus oryzae. 170 Cellobiose, cellotriose, and cellotetraose were obtained from the acid hydrolysate while isoprimeverose ( 4 ) and the pentasaccharide ( 5 ) were characterized from the enzymic hydrolysate. Similar studies using the cellulase from Trichoderma viride produced three types of oligosaccharide, hepta-, nona-, and deca-saccharides, and their structures were partially characterized. 1 7 ’ The structure of a cell-wall polysaccharide isolated from cotyledons of tora bean has been established by methylation analysis, Smith degradation, and enzymatic fragmentation. 1 7 2 The main features were those of a E-galacto-E-xylo-D-glucan where a (1+4)-8-P-glucan main chain is substituted at 0-6 by and 8-8-galactopyranosyl-E-xylopyranosyl residues. D-xylopyranosyl A further feature was the presence of (1+5)-a-L-arabinan side chains (degree of polymerization = 8 ) at some 0-3 positions of the main chain. A Q-xylo-E-glucan has been isolated from the cell walls of potato (Solanum tuberosum), and the methylation analysis and fragmentation results confirmed the usual structure. 73 Some of the g-xylose residues carried further substitution at 0-2 with L-arabinofuranosyl and 9-galactopyranosyl residues. The biosynthesis of the P-xylo-P-glucan in cultured soybean cells has been studied. 7 4 Two types were obtained from cultured cell walls (mol. wts. 1.8 x l o 5 and 6 x l o 4 ) and one from the culture medium, the molecular weight of which shifted from 6 x l o 4 to 3 x l o 4 during the progress of cultivation. The compositions were very similar and two kinds of oligosaccharide repeating units were present, namely a heptasaccharide (Q-xy1ose:D-glucose 3:4) and a nonasaccharide (?-galactose:&-fucose:;-xylose:Q-glucose (1:1:3:4)).

Since isoprimeverose is the smallest structural unit of D-xylo-q-glucan, the polymer can be synthesized from these nucleotide sugars. The results have been used as the basis of an 76 They have also assay for Q-xylo-P-glucan:q-xylosyltransferase.l been used to suggest that this transferase can be distinguished from other polysaccharide synthetase activities. The metabolism of polysaccharides by pea stem segments treated with and without auxin has been studied by a centrifugation technique.’ 7 7 Auxin enhanced the levels of e-xylose and ;-glucose in ethanol-insoluble polysaccharide, and these sugars were in a Q-xylo-;-glucan. Similar studies using ethene showed that this treatment lowered the amount of Q-xylo-9-glucan in ethanol-insoluble polysaccharides. 78 The vacuum u.v.-c.d. spectra of guar, tara, and carob p-galacto-E-mannans, which had D-galactose contents of 3 9 , 25,and 198, respectively,have been re~0rded.l~’A positive band at 169 nm and a negative band at 149 nm were observed whose relative intensities increased systematically with decreasing ;-galactose content for solid films. Some of the differences were attributed to conformational restriction of ;-galactose residues by chain packing with a consequent increase in the c.d. intensities from these residues and a cancellation of q-mannan backbone contributions. High-performance size-exclusion chromatography of guar gum has indicated that the molecular weight was >2.0 x 1O6.l8’ The seeds of AstraRalus sinicus contain a polysaccharide which ratio of 1:2.3 and a molecular weight has a p-galactose:p-mannose of 1.6 x 104.181 The results of methylation and Smith degradation analyses indicated that the P-galactopyranosyl residues were attached to 0-6 of the main chain but that both (1+3)-and (1+4)-linkages were present in the main c-mannan chain. Treatment of guar gum with an a-E-galactosidase has produced a polymer in which 75% of the E-galactose residues have been removed, but there was no reduction in viscosity.182 Further treatment did reduce the viscosity and led to D-mannan-type precipitates. The interaction of guar gum with xanthan gum is increased by removal of the Q-galactose residues. The chemical structure of the 2-galacto-q-mannan component of

Trypanosoma cruzi has been determined by 13C n.m.r. spectroscopy and confirmed that B-IJ-galactofuranosyl residues were linked at the non-reducing terminus to 0-3 of P-mannose residues.’83 E-Galacto-g-mannans are the major storage reserve carbohydrate in the embryo of fenugreek but they are not mobilized during the first 24 h of germination. 84 A pure D-gluco-g-mannan has been recovered from the hot-water extract from Aloe barbadensis .185 The methylated polysaccharide (mol. wt. 1.5 x l o 4 ) contained residues of 2,3,4,6-tetra-, 2,3,6-tri-, and 2,3-di-g-methyl-P-mannose and 2,3,6-tri-g-methylD-glucose in the ratios 1.3:18.3:1.2:1.0. ;-Mannose was observed in hydrolysates of the holocellulose of Panicum coloratum leaves.186 The material containing this sugar residue was particularly resistant to extraction from the a-cellulose fraction. The conditions for the preparation of a rigid and homogeneous gel from Konjac mannan have been p ~ b 1 i s h e d . l ~ ~ Fractionation of cell-wall preparations from grass leaves has shown that the less dense fractions had a higher ;-xylan content as well as a higher content of lignin and acetyl residues. 88 Fully methylated P-xylan-type oligosaccharides have been analysed by mass spectrometry and the fragmentation patterns compared.189 Within the series of di- and tri-saccharides studied, the criteria proposed permitted reliable determinations of any of the theoretically possible branching points. The structure of the water-soluble 4-arabino-Q-xylan from delignified bark of Cinnamomum zeylanicum has been established.”’ The main (1+4)-B-;-xylan chain is substituted both at 0-2 and 0-3 with b-arabinofuranosyl and 3-C+a-~-xylopyranosyl-~-arabinofuranosyl groups. The isolation, purification,and partial characterization of a g-glucurono-L-arabino-;-xylan, a previously unobserved component of the primary cell wall of dicotyledonous plants, have been described.lgl It represents 5% of the wall and has the usual structural features of this type of hemicellulose. A procedure has been developed for the fractionation of the non-starchy polysaccharides of wheat bran.’ 9 2 Determination of the activity of Ca2+ ions bound to carboxy groups in the E-xylan from white willow has shown that 4-~-methyl-~-glucopyranosyluronic acid groups are concentrated in blocks where at least every second a-Q-xylopyranosyl residue

contains a single uronic acid residue linked by a ( 1 + 2 ) bond.lg3 These acidic blocks alternate with blocks of unsubstituted D-xylose units which are three times as long. The hemicellulose contents of leaves, nodes,and internodes of wheat straw were similar.lg4 Ozone and sulphur dioxide at 70°C for 72 h solubilized virtually all the wheat hemicelluloses. 9 5 Results were also presented on the digestion of the hemicelluloses by rumen micro-organisms. Similar studies with rumen organisms have been carried out on NaOH-treated straw. l g 6 The hemicellulose content of cotton straw is reduced by 50% on treatment with ozone. l g 7 Auxin was found to have no effect on the structure of the L-arabino-q-xylans isolated from Avena coleoptiles. 9 8 The pentosans of pearl millet (Pennisetum americanum) have been separated into four fractions and each was found to contain varying amounts of seven sugar residues.lg9 Each fraction also contained protein. A mechanism for the oxidative gelation of the water-soluble pentosan of wheat flour has been proposed that suggests an attack by addition of a protein radical to the activated double bond of a ferulic acid residue.200 The substrate-binding site of the endo-(1-+4)-8-~-xylanase from the yeast Cryptococcus albidus has been investigated using a series of (1+4)-8-;-xylan oligosaccharides which were labelled with tritium at the reducing end.201 The substrate binding site is composed of four subsites with the catalytic groups located in the centre. As a consequence of an assymetric distribution of negative values of affinity around the binding site, the enzyme displays a strong preference to attack near the reducing end of the substrate. The mechanism of action was found to involve pathways other than a simple hydrolytic cleavage.202 Some IJ-xylosyl transfer occurred to increase the molecular size of the substrate and the transfer came from the non-reducing end of the molecule. All features of the degradation of oligosaccharides by this E-xylanase were consistent with the lysozyme-type reaction mechanism Particulate enzyme preparations obtained from homogenates of differentiated xylem cells from sycamore trees have catalysed the synthesis of a D_-xylan from UDP-q-xylose. 203 The polysaccharide had the expected structure.

enzyme system increased markedly as cells differentiated from the vascular cambium to the xylem.204 The increase was closely correlated with the enhanced deposition of D-xylan occurring during the formation of secondary thickening. The control of hemicellulose synthesis during differentiation of vascular tissue in bean callus and hypocotyl has been investigated and the E-xylan synthetase induction correlated with the induction of phenylalanine ammonia-lyase and with lignin synthesis.*05 A cell-wall degrading agent has been isolated from Chlorella 206 and characterized as a (1+4)-8-Q-xylanase. Residual carbohydrates have been removed almost completely from milled wood lignin preparations of birchwood by treating with NaOH-dioxane. 2 0 7 Treatment with HC1-dioxane did not decrease the carbohydrate content. Studies using i.r. and n.m.r. spectroscopy indicated that a benzyl ester type of linkage existed between lignin and 'the carbohydrates. The lignin-carbohydrate complex from the milled wood lignin fraction of Pinus densiflora contained three sub-fractions on gel filtration.2 0 8 Two of the fractions were homogeneous and their compositions were determined. Methylation analysis showed that the carbohydrate moiety exhibited multiple branching with the major backbone being composed of (1+4)-p-mannan chains. A water-soluble lignin-carbohydrate complex has been released from jute (Corcharus capsularis) fibre by reduction with borohydride. * 0 9 Analysis of the pxylans from the original and borohydride-treated fibres indicated that 34% of the acidic side chains of the g-xylan were linked to lignin by ester bonds. Lignin-carbohydrate complexes have been released from wheat straw by prolonged hot-water extraction.2 The bound sugars were identified as g-glucose, 4-arabinose, q-xylose,and ;-galactose residues with uronic acids being absent. The higher molecular weight fractions were richer in !-glucose residues with the lower molecular weight ones being richer in E-xylose and 4-arabinose residues.

An investigation of oligo- and poly-galacturonic acids has been carried out by potentiometry and c.d.212 It was shown that no Ca2+ ion is ever fixed in excess of stoichiometry. The c.d. spectra, in spectroscopic data, suggested that, in agreement with 1 3 C n.m.r. dilute solutions, the polymer adopts two conformations. The gelation of pectin under conditions of low water activity has been investigated by c.d., competitive inhibition, and mechanical properties. 2 1 3 The optimum degree of esterification for pectin gelation under conditions of low water activity is 70%. The reduction in gel strength at lower degrees of esterification is not merely due to increased charge density but also results from the loss of a significant contribution which the ester group makes to the stability of the interchain junctions. Gel permeation chromatography, c.d., and viscosity measurements showed that appreciable aggregations of aqueous solutions of pectin occur at low concentrations in pectins of both low and high ester content . 2 1 The aggregation is independent of divalent cations. The Arrhenius slopes were greater at lower temperatures and they increase with conditions such as pH, ionic strength, concentration, and degree of esterification that are known to favour interchain association of pectin. The c.d. spectra at various pH values and in the presence of additives indicated that two modes of interchain association contribute to the network formation in calcium pectate gels.215 The first is by interchain chelation of Ca2+ ions and the second is by non-ionic interchain associations analogous to those in pectin gels with low water activity. The contribution of the latter type increases on lowering the pH, as the Ca2+ ion binding capacity is diminished and interchain electrostatic repulsions are minimized. The mechanical properties and thermal stability of a gel are a function of the proportion of each type. A relationship has been sought between the ability of various ions to inhibit growth and their ability to cause gelation of isolated pectins, their binding affinity for isolated cell walls, and their binding affinity for purified pectin.216 A good correspondence was found with the second factor. Pectic gel formation was not involved in cation-induced growth inhibition. The previously determined activity coefficients of Ca2+ ion in oligo-g-galacturonates were plotted and extrapolated to infinity.217 In molecular disperse solutions the binding of Ca2+ ions was electrostatic, whereas in aggregated molecules a chelate

intermolecular binding also took place. The non-reducing terminal uronic acid residues bind Ca2+ ions less firmly than to the inner units of the chain. Lemon pectin and pectic acids have been hydrolysed into acid-soluble and acid-insoluble products and separated by gel filtration.*18 The latter product had a molecular weight of 3.03.2 x l o 4 whereas the former could be separated into two components (mol. wts. 2.2 -2.5 x l o 4 and < 6 x l o 3 ) . The larger of these two components contained only (1+4)-a-Q-galacturonan chains while the smaller contained residues of E-galacturonic acid and L_-rhamnose as well as other neutral sugars. Cell-wall material has been isolated from cabbage (Brassica oleracea) and methylated.21 Hydrolysis of the product and analysis of the fragments revealed some of the structural features many of which were derived from the pectin present. Two pectic fractions, comprising 52% of the cell wall, have been isolated from potatoes. 2 2 0 Both fractions contained a range of molecular types differing in composition. The more easily extracted fraction had a high 4-arabinose:E-galactose ratio as well as a high D-galacturonic acid content. The more easily extractable fraction was probably held by Ca2+ ion bonds. An endo-poly-2-galacturonanase from Aspergillus japonica has been used for the isolation and characterization of cell-wall pectic Methylation analysis of the four substances from potato tubers. fractions obtained by gel filtration was used to elucidate their structure. The two highest molecular size fragments had very similar compositions while the intermediate fraction had a very complex structure including P-galacturonic acid residues which were branched at C-3. Sequential extractions of Rosa glauca cell walls showed that two different types of acidic polysaccharide were present . 2 2 2 One was extracted with chelating agents while the other remained in close association with the a-cellulose fraction. A structurally complex pectic polysaccharide, k-rhamno-Pgalacturonan I, has been isolated from the primary cell wall of suspension-cultured sycamore cells. 223 The polysaccharide (mol. wt. 2 x l o 5 ) has the usual pectin backbone to which is attached a wide variety of side chains containing &-arabinosyl and/or P-galactosyl residues.

The steric course of the methyl esterification reaction of a has been studied using 5-adenosylmethionine and an p-galacturonan enzyme preparation from Phaseolus a ~ r e u s .The ~ ~methyl ~ group of the methionine derivative was chiral, possessing 'H, 2H, and 3H substituents,and it was shown that transfer of the methyl group to the oxygen of the carboxy group proceeds with inversion of the configuration of the methyl group. mg g-l) was found in a wide variety of pectin Silica ( 1 . 4 - 2 . 3 samples. 226 Pectic substances were the major components of cell-wall material from pea flour and concentrates. 227 Detergent methods were shown to underestimate the pectin contents in a range of dietary fibres.228 For example, 50% of orange pectin was recovered in the acid-detergent residue and 38% in the neutral-detergent residue. Many of the physical properties of the dietary fibre from apples were shown to be due to the high pectin content.229 The interactions of bile acids and their conjugates with pectins of different degrees of esterification in the pH range 3.5-7.3 have spectroscopy, but no molecular been investigated by 'H n.m.r. interactions were apparent .23 O The pH-dependent interaction between pea cell-wall polymers possibly involved in wall deposition and growth has been investigated and there occurs, at neutral pH values, a pH- and time-dependent binding of soluble pectin, in the walls, to a heat-labile protein component of the wall.231 The reaction is also observed in water extracts of walls. The reaction is inhibited at low pH values and by Ca2+ ions and is lectin-like in nature. An elicitor of phytoalexin accumulation has been solubilized from cell walls of soybeans.232 The active material contains residues of E-galacturonic acid, L-rhamnose,and E-xylose and is probably pectic in origin. Similar elicitors could be prepared from suspension-cultured tobacco, sycamore, and wheat cells. A pectic polysaccharide, solubilized by the action of a fungal endo-(1+4)-a-~-galacturonanase from sycamore cell walls, possesses activity similar to the proteinase-inhibitor inducing factor isolated from tomato leaves.2 3 3 The synthesis and accumulation of proteinase inhibitor I in excised tomato leaves can be induced with oligosaccharides obtained by endo-(1+4)-a-D-galacturonanase -

Pectic multienzyme preparations have been separated by h.p.1.c. using both isocratic and linear-gradient conditions.235 Three D_-galacturonanases have been isolated from carrots, two from root tissue and one from cell-suspension cultures.236 All three enzymes were of similar size (mol. wt. 4.8 x l o 4 > and were exo-enzymes. The only major differences were in the binding properties of the enzymes to cell-wall material. Pectic enzymes have been extracted from haustoria of Cassytha filiformis growing on Nerium indicum and Hibiscus rosa-sinensis and both strains contained exo-(1+4)-a-~-galacturonanase and exo-pectin methylgalacturonanase activity. 2 3 7 The two strains differed markedly in the production of lyase enzymes: the Nerium strain produced endo-pectic acid lyase while the Hibiscus strain produced endo-pectin lyase. 4 A g-galacturonanase (mol. wt. 3.6 x 10 ) has been isolated from Sodium citrus fruit infected with Penicillium italicum. 238 P-galacturonan was a better substrate than citrus pectin. The P-galacturonanase activity in seed cavity tissue from harvested cucumber fruit increases 20-fold after the fruit produces a transient burst of ethene during maturation.239 A single pectic enzyme, g-galacturonanase, is produced by Rhizoctonia solani in culture and during infection of cotton seedlings.240 The enzyme (mol. wt. 4.2 x l o 4 > has a pH optimum of 5.2.
The P-galacturonanase from Rhizopus stolonifer has been shown to be an elicitor of casbene synthetase activity in castor bean seedlings.241 The enzyme is a glycoprotein (mol. wt. 3.2 x lo4) and contains 20% carbohydrate. The principal sugar residues present are E-mannose (92%) and 2-amino-2-deoxy-~-glucose (8%) and the enzyme is an e n d o - h y d r ~ l a s e . ~ ~Other ~ features of the enzyme were reported. The active site of the endo-q-galacturonanase from tomato has been studied using oligo-2-galacturonic acids and their aldehydo derivatives.243 The relationship of the substrate chain length to the initial and maximum reaction rates was determined. The topology of the active site was suggested from the results. The

Green fruit contains a factor which can convert form I1 into form 1,and the amount of this factor increases during ripening. The characteristics of the pectin methylesterase from potato have been determined and the role of the enzyme in commercial dehydrated mashed-potato production has been examined. 2 4 5 Ca2+ ions. but not Mg2+ ions, retard solubilization. Texture measurements suggested a firming effect which could be attributed to Ca2+ ion release during pre-cooking and stabilization of Ca2+ ion bridges during cooling. The changes in pectinesterase activity and other pectin changes in mango varieties during storage and ripening have been investigated.246 In a study of the microbiology of wetwood, the importance of Clostridia species in the degradation of pectin has been assessed.247 High levels of pectinolytic enzymes were produced in culture filtrates of Phoma exigua and Graphium penicillioides isolated from decaying seeds of Phaseolus aureus and Cyamopsis tetragonalobus,respectively.248 The susceptibility of strawberry varieties to breakdown in sulphate liquor by the m-g-galacturonanase from Zygomycete spoilage fungi has been in~estigated.~~' Fruit waste containing de-esterified pectin as a thickener has been assessed for its potential use in canned products.250
7 Gums and Mucilages The carbohydrate gum from bael (AeRle marmelos) seeds has been resolved into four glycoprotein fractions. 2 5 1 One of these contained residues of :-galactose, !-glucose, L-arabinose, and &-rhamnose in the molar ratios 6:2:8:3. The linkages amongst these residues were determined as well as the anomeric configuration of the glycosyl residues. The structure of the linkage region was established as Q3-4-arabinopyranosyl-4-threonine. A histological and a histochemical comparison of the mucilages on the root tips of several grasses has been made,and it was concluded that there were two types.252 One is a gelatinous material originating from the root cap and the other is a firm uniformly thick mucilage overlying the columnar epidermal cells.

Reactions of the outer layer and cell wall indicated that carboxy groups were present and these were absent from the inner mucilage. A mucous polysaccharide has been isolated from the bulbs of Narcissus t a ~ e t t a . ~It~ was ~ homogeneous and contained g-mannose and g-glucose residues in the ratio 5:l with a molecular weight of 1.19 x lo’. The g-acetyl content was 22.79,and these groups were present on C - 6 and on C-2 and C-6 of most p-mannose residues. The main chain is a (1+4)-B-g-hexopyran. The glycoprotein from neem (Azadirachta indica) gum (mol. wt. 1.3 x lo4) contained 50% carbohydrate.254 The sugar residues present were Q-mannose, 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-D-glucose, p-galactose, 4-arabinose, 4-fucose, q-xylose,and g-glucose in the ratios 14:13:5:3:1:1:1. The linkage between the carbohydrate and the protein was an y 4 - (2-acetamido-2-deoxy-8-D-glucopyranosyl) hydrogen L-asparaginate bond. Another glycoprotein from the same This material contained source contained only 19% ~arbohydrate.~’~ the same sugar residues in the ratio 4:3:2:3:2:1:1. The linkage region was the same. The mucilage of Opuntia ficus-indica and the partially degraded mucilage have been investigated by methylation analysis and periodate oxidation.256 The results show that the mucilage is composed of l,4-substituted a-D-galactopyranosyluronic acid and 1,2-substituted B-L-rhamnopyranosyl residues to which short chains of 1,6-substituted B-P-galactopyranosyl residues were attached at 0-4 of all of the &-rhamnopyranosyl residues. Most of the 9-galactosyl residues carry branches at 0-3 while some are branched at 0-4. Partial acid hydrolysis of this mucilage has e its polymeryielded ~ - ~ --~ - g a l a c t o p y r a n o s y l - ( 1 ’ 6 ) - ~ - g a l a c t o sand homologous trimer as well as fourteen oligosaccharides that contain L-arabinose residues and most of which have D-xylosyl residues at the non-reducing terminus.257 The oligosaccharides ( 6 ) and (7) were the most abundant, Similar studies have been reported on the mucilage of 0. aurantiaca with similar results.258 The gum exudates from some Prosopis species have been analysed by the Smith degradation procedure. 259 The degraded gums have chain was molecular weights of 6 x lo3. A simple (1+3)-!-galactan obtained after only two degradations showing that the skeleton was similar to those of Acacia gums. Autohydrolysis of the gum exudate from the Spondias dulcis tree gave a gum containing !-galactose, ;-arabinose,and D-galacturonic acid in the ratio 3:3:1.260 Three neutral and three acidic

oligosaccharides were obtained and their structures characterized to suggest a sequence for the repeating unit. Chromium(V1) trioxide oxidation was used to determine the anomeric configuration of the sugar residues. 8 Algal Polysaccharides
Based on chemical shifts and C-H coupling constants from model molecules, the structural conformation of aqueous agarose solutions and gels has been determined from the 1 3 C n.m.r. spectra. 2 6 1 Similar studies on the agaroses of Pterocladia species and Gracilaria secundata have been reported and all signals in the spectra were assigned to various ;-galactose derivatives and agaro-oligosaccharides.26 The chemical composition and rheological properties of the agar isolated from Gelidium purpurascens before and after alkaline treatment have been reported .263 The D_-xylose, ;-glucose, and p-glucuronic acid residues in the agar were removed on alkaline treatment together with 86% of the protein. Sequential extraction of the alga accounted for low yields of agar as losses incurred on precipitation with ethanol. A method has been presented for the determination of the backbone conformations of polymer chains conforming to a given helical type.264 The method is illustrated by its application to agarose. The high resolution 13C n.m.r. spectra of slightly depolymerized alginates have been interpreted.265 The sequence of the monomer units k-guluronate (G) and p-mannuronate (M) markedly influences the chemical shifts. Some of the individual carbon resonances were resolved into four lines,which was evidence for a dependence on the identities of the units immediately before and after them in the polymer chain. The relative intensities of the signals permitted a rapid computation of the monomeric composition (M/G ratio), the composition of end units (M/G ratio), and the monomeric sequence in terms of a complete set of four diad and eight triad frequencies. Any region with a strictly alternating M and G sequence was very short. The cation-specific vacuum ultraviolet c.d. spectra of alginate solutions, gels, and solid films have been recorded.266 A band at 185 nm has been assigned to carboxy groups while those at 169 and 149 nm were assigned to changes in the polymer backbone.

1-Carrageenan has shown substantial helix formation in the presence of Li', Na', and Me4N+ ions as measured by optical rotation, but the polymer does not gel. 2 6 7 Under identical Cs+,and NHq' ions. conditions, the polymer does gel with K+, Rb', Initially the individual The gel formation is in three stages. coils form double helices,then the double helices form domains, which finally form aggregates around the heavier Group I ions. A detailed assignment of the 13C chemical shifts of K and I-carrageenan in their Na' and K + forms has been given.268 Evidence for the conformational transition induced by temperature variation in the absence of any gel formation of K-carrageenan is also presented. The evidence is based on both n.m.r. and optical rotation experiments. Measurements of rigidity moduli and 39K and 23Na n.m.r. spectra have been used to investigate the roles played by Ca2+, K',and Na+ ions in 1-carrageenan gels. 2 6 9 Differences in binding were reflected in the rheological properties of the gels. Potassium 1-carrageenate gels have been prepared and studied by photon nm.270 The molecular and correlation spectroscopy at 633 vibrational motions of the gels were interpreted in terms of their elastic properties. Below the sol-gel transition temperature, oscillatory correlation functions were found with the frequency remaining constant for two weeks. Measurements of the shear modulus for Ca2+, K+, and Na+ 1-carrageenate gels as a function of biopolymer concentration and temperature showed that the Ca 2 + salt appears to possess a random glass-like structure whereas the K + and Na+ forms show a pseudocrystalline structure.271 The differences were tentatively attributed to differences in the solubility of the salt forms which, through controlling the gelation temperature, moderated the kinetics of the gelation process. The optical rotation and the conductivity of K-carrageenans in aqueous solutions have been investigated as functions of temperature in the presence of various electrolytes . 2 7 2 The activity coefficients of Na+ and K + ions have been determined and correlated with the conformation. The K + activity coefficient under ordered conformation is in agreement with a mechanism involving dimerization. The use of the carrageenan from the red alga Eucheuma striatum has been investigated as a possible substitute for agar in bacteriological tests. 2 7 3

Neocarratetraose 4-2-monosulphate B-hydrolase has been isolated from cell-free extracts of Pseudomonas carrageenovora.2 7 4 The hydrolysis products are neocarrabiose and neocarrabiose 4-2-sulphate. The pathway for the sequential degradation of the tetrasaccharide was proposed. A-Carrageenan has been shown to have a hypotensive effect in the rat that was dependent on platelet stimulation.275 Also in rats, intraperitoneal injection of ellagic acid and carrageenan The reduced paw oedema induced by carrageenan itself.276 relationship between the anticoagulant activity and the pro- and anti-inflammatory mechanism in A-carrageenan-induced inflammation has been investigated.277 The gelation behaviour of solutions of chitosan on reaction with acid anhydrides has been studied, and the effects of the time to onset of gelation and of varying the nature and concentration of the anhydride, the chitosan concentration, the temperature,and the nature of the cosolvent were all examined.278 Gelation occurred due to the decreased solubility of the polymer molecules brought on by g-acylation,and all other parameters influenced the rate of N-acylation. The syneresis of the gels was examined. The degree of N-acylation required to initiate gelation depended on the molecular weight of the acyl anhydride and the concentrations of c h i t ~ s a n . ~The ~ ~ energy of activation of N-acylation was determined for tj-acetylation and N-hexanoylation. A mechanism was proposed for the gelation process. An i.r. spectroscopic method has been used to determine the amide content of highly deacylated chitosans.280 A plot of the ratio of absorbance at the amide band ( 1 6 5 5 cm-1) to the C-H stretch frequency (2867 cm-l) against the degree of deacetylation was linear in the deacetylation range 90-100%. The degree of N-acetylation of chitosan was rapidly determined by periodate oxidation and i.r. spectroscopic methods. 281 The i.r. methods gave higher results but were thought to be more reliable. A new method of chitin determination, based on deacetylation and g.1.c. analysis of the liberated acetic acid,has been applied to a variety of chitosans.282 The results were in good agreement with other methods even though the rate of deacetylation of some chitosans is 10 times that of others. A highly crystalline form of a-chitin has been found in the grasping spines of the marine worm Sagitta and been examined by electron microscopy and electron diffraction.283

The chitin from carapace of Penaeus japonicus has been purified by a proteolytic enzyme from Pseudomonas malt~philia.'~~No deacetylation occurred and the protein content was reduced to virtually zero. The molecular weight of the enzymically prepared chitin was higher than that obtained by alkaline treatment. Polyelectrolytic complexes have been prepared from chitosan and sodium carboxymethylcellulose. 2 8 5 None were soluble in aprotic solvents but the series prepared at high pH values were more soluble in hot formic acid than those prepared at low pH values. The former were also different from the latter in the density of carboxy sites.286 A 'H n.m.r. method has been used to investigate the binding of methyl di-tj-acetyl-8-chitobioside to wheat-germ agglutinin. 2 8 7 The linewidth broadening of the methoxy protons allowed a calculation of kinetic association constants to be obtained. The bovine serum chitinase has been characterized as a true (l+4)-8-D-2-acetamido-2-deoxy-glucanase without any s - 8 - q - 2 acetamido-2-deoxy-glucosidase activity. 288 The purification and properties of the enzyme were reported. The chitin synthesizing system of insect tissue has been reported.289 A study on the adsorption of heavy-metal ions by chitin phosphate and chitosan phosphate has been made F g o The chemical composition of the porphyran from Porphyra columbina was in good agreement with data for similar polysaccharides. 29 One fraction had an optical rotation similar to that of the porphyran from P. capensis while the optical rotation of another fraction was similar to that of the phycocolloid of P. umbilicalis. The molar composition of the latter was D-galactose:6-~-methyl-D-galactose:3,6-anhydro-~ga1actose:sulphate in the ratio 1.00:~0.57:0.35:0.65. Several spectra could be assigned to various signals in the 'H n.m.r. anomeric protons.

The structural features elucidated were similar to those fromother L-fucans. Polysaccharide material from Eucheuma spinosum appears to consist of two different components containing low and high sulphate contents. 2 9 6 The major component had the higher sulphate content while the molecular sizes of the two polysaccharides were d i fferent A series of acidic oligosaccharides (8) (20) has been obtained by graded acid hydrolysis of the methylated acidic polysaccharide associated with the coccoliths of the alga Emiliania huxleyi: the above structures were characterized. 2 9 7 The results along with methylation data from the native, carboxyreduced, and desulphated carboxy-reduced polysaccharides have been used to give a proposed structure for this complex polymer.298 Glycogen accumulation in vegetative cells of the blue-green alga Anabaena is a light-dependent process.299 The amount of glycogen produced was high during sporulation and this increased with the onset of maturation of the spores. The amino-acids L-methionine, k-tyrosine, b-glycine, and k-histidine gave the greatest enhancement of glycogen accumulation in supplemented cultures although all the amino-acids examined had a positive effect.3 0 0 The storage D-glucans in and isoenzyme distribution of Cyanidium caldarium have been in~estigated.~” The observations propose this organism to be a primitive Rhodophytan which is an algal-bridge linking the prokaryotic blue-green and the red algae.

Glycolipids and Gangliosides BY I. M. MORRISON 1 Introduction
Various aspects of glycolipids are reviewedin the second of a twovolume book on cell membranes and viral envelopes.’ The structure and function of plant lipids occupy Volume 4 of the comprehensive treatise on the biochemistry of plants.2 A review on the role of lipids in biological membranes has appeared .3 2 Analytical and General Methods 1.r.
photoacoustic spectroscopy has been used to study skin Using CHC13-MeOH (2: 1 ) extracts, the results were similar to those obtained by i.r. transmission spectroscopy,but only l o - * times the amount of material was required. The phenol-sulphuric acid method for the estimation of sugars in lipids has been modified by keeping the products at 100°C for 5 More reproducible results were obtained. A dry-column method for the quantitative extraction and simultaneous separation of lipid classes has been developed.6 The tissue sample, anhydrous sodium sulphate,and diatomaceous earth are ground together and packed in a column. Total lipid or lipid classes are then eluted by isocratic or sequential elution, respectively. A two-stage, one-dimensional t.1.c. method has been developed for the separation of lipid classes.’ Lecithin was found to influence the chromatography of steroid glucosiduronates .8 It was concluded that hydrogen bonds were formed between the phosphodiester group of lecithin and the hydroxy groups of the steroid conjugates. D-Galactose oxidase is able to oxidize the hydroxymethyl group of lipids containing 9-galactose or 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-Dg a l a c t o ~ e .These ~ sugar residues can then be labelled by reduction with radiolabelled borohydride. Conditions are described for the most efficient production of product. Methylation techniques for the structural analysis of

glycolipids have been reviewed. It has been shown that particles, previously observed in freeze-fracture replicas of mixed phospholipid dispersions, occur in dispersions of mixed ~ - 3 - ~ - g a l a c t o p y r a n o s y l d i a c y l - g l y c e r o l s l. 1 These particles correspond to lipid micelles sandwiched within a membrane bilayer.
3 Gangliosides The gangliosides GM1 and GD have been specifically oxidized at la the +position of the sphingosine moiety with 2,3-dichloroo f Triton X-1 00.l 2 5,6-dicyanobenzoquinone in the presence Subsequent reduction with borohydride restored the ganglioside to its original form, and if a radiolabel was used 99% of the radioactivity was incorporated. Proof of the reaction was obtained by reoxidation when the label was removed. The interaction of gangliosides with Ca2+ ions and some polar head-group requirements for the establishment of particular interactions with phosphatidylcholine have been studied in monolayers at the air-0.145M NaCl interface. l 3 The gangliosideCa2+ interaction depended on the position occupied by the neuraminosyl residues in the oligosaccharide chain. Favoured interactions o f polyneuraminosylgangliosides with phosphatidylcholine may result from a configuration which allows a partial matching of two oppositely orientated electrical vectors contributed by the zwitterionic phosphocholine group and particular neuraminosyl groups. The gangliosides G D ~and GT were biosynthesized as secondary la products from lactosylceramide and GM1,respectively.l 4 By a series of reactions involving periodate oxidation, borohydride reduction, and hydrolysis, the linkage between the two neuraminic acid residues was identified as (2+8). 'H n.m.r. spectroscopy has demonstrated that N-acetyl-aacid is the first product released by the D-neuraminic neuraminidases of both Clostridium perfringens and Arthrobacter ureafaciens when hydrolysing neuraminic acid-containing carbohydrate chains. l 5 Spectrofluorimetric techniques have been used to study various The studies ganglioside and ganglioside-lecithin dispersions. l 6 indicate that the ultimate and/or penultimate carbohydrate moieties of the neutral sugar backbone of gangliosides and the

topographical difference in the locations of the neuraminic acid linkage influence the integrity of the membranes including the hydrophobic region. The micellar properties of gangliosides in aqueous solutions have been investigated by quasi-elastic light - scattering The scattered intensity data allowed the measurements. l 7 derivation of an upper limit to the critical micelle concentration and the evaluation of the molecular weight of the micelle from GMl and GDla. Aqueous dispersions of G M 1 and Triton X-100, in different proportions, have been analysed for some physicochemical properties and their susceptibility to ;-galactose oxidase. l8 Differences in the molar ratio gave well defined transitions between different micellar species as measured by the physicochemical methods, and these transitions were also evident in the kinetics of the !-galactose oxidase. The properties of these micelles were further studied using light-scattering methods. The ;-galactose oxidase acted very poorly on homogeneous G *1 micelles,but at fixed G M , concentrations the rate was increased by increasing Triton X-100 concentrations. The formation of statistical micelle aggregates was followed by inhibition of the ?-galactose oxidase activity. H and 13C n.m.r. spectroscopy, laser-light scattering,and differential scanning microcalorimetry have been used to study the influence of GH, and G D l a on the structural and thermotropic properties of sonicated small 1,2-dipalmitoyl-a-~-phosphatidylcholine vesicles.” Since the average dimensions of all vesicles were the same, differences in the temperature dependence of heat capacity in the presence of the gangliosides were attributed to differences in interaction of the hydrophobic parts of the molecules. The higher content of C20 sphingosines in G D l a as compared to GM was considered to be one possible source of 1 difference. Trineuraminosylgangliosides are spontaneously incorporated into 1,2-dipalmitoyl-a-~-phosphatidylcholine vesicles and, since the ganglioside, on incorporation, is susceptible to neuraminidase action, it is concluded that incorporation occurs only on the outer face of the bilayer.*l Calorimetric studies have indicated that the ganglioside stabilizes the vesicular structures by inhibiting the fusion of small vesicles that occurs below the phase-transition temperature. Cholesterol enhanced the binding of thyrotropin to 1,2-dipalmitoyl-a-~,~-phosphatidylcholine liposomes containing G, 1

ganglioside but not those containing the gangliosides G, and 1 The role of gangliosides in the binding and action of GDla' thyrotropin has been re-evaluated by comparing thyrotropin binding with cholera-toxin binding in a cloned line of normal rat thyroid cells and neuraminidase-treated cells . 2 3 The results indicate that more complex gangliosides do not serve as a component of the thyrotropin receptors nor are they involved in the transmission of the hormone signal across the cell membrane of these cells. Gangliosides that bind cholera toxin have been detected by the direct binding of 1251-labelled toxin on t.l.c.24 The method is and should be applicable to other sensitive to 70 fmol G M ~ carbohydrate-binding materials. The preparation of a receptorspecific affinity chromatographic matrix for the large-scale purification of cholera toxin has been described.25 The ganglioside G M ~is hydrolysed to lyso GM,, which is coupled, via stabilized Schiff's bases, to porous silica beads. The amount of toxin bound was proportional to the amount of lyso G M ~used. Ganglioside affinity filters have been used to identify toxigenic strains of Clostridium botulinum types C and D but could be used on a general procedure for identifying botulinal toxin and toxigenic Antibodies to the gangliosides G D ~ and G M ~ have been prepared and their properties determined.27 The antibodies to G, were 3 highly specific while those to G M 1 reacted with many other A periodate-oxidized gangliosides and their derivatives. itself. derivative of GM, cross-reacted almost as readily as G, 1 The specificity of limulin and wheat-germ agglutinin towards neuraminic acids has been studied using lipid vesicles containing GM3. 2 8 Limulin binds specifically to E-glycoloyl derivatives of G but the hydroxy group at C-4 and the carboxy group must also 3, be free. The side chain is not involved in binding. Wheat-germ agglutinin only binds when the hydrophilic tail is removed. The acetamido group but not the carboxy group is involved. The ganglioside GM,, incorporated in a planar lipid bilayer, interacts specifically with Ricinus toxin.29 A fourteen-fold increase in conductance was observed. An interspecies comparison of the brain ganglioside patterns from fish, amphibians, birds,and mammals has been studied by twodimensional t. 1 .c .30 Over 30 components were detected in mammalian neural samples. Differences were observed between the vertebrate classes,but greater similarity exists between the lower and higher

classes than had previously been noted. Various surfactants have been shown to be able to replace the requirements f o r the activator protein in the hydrolysis of G M ~ ganglioside by the B-~-2-acetamido-2-deoxy-hexosidase A from human liver.31 In the presence of saturating concentrations of the activator, the enzymatic hydrolysis of the substrate was further stimulated. The surfactants had no effect on the enzymatic 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-B-Dhydrolysis of 4-methylumbelliferyl glucose. A model for this reaction is discussed. A mononeuraminosylganglioside has been shown to be the antigen of a monoclonal antibody that is specific for cells from carcinoma of the human colon.32 The surface distribution of the ganglioside G, on human blood 1 cells and the effect of endogenous GM, and neuraminidase on cholera-toxin surface labelling have been demonstrated by an immunocytochemical study.33 Neutrophils were the most heavily labelled blood cells while lymphocytes, erythrocytes,and platelets were only labelled to a limited extent. The labelling was significantly altered on neuraminidase treatment. The lymphocytes of human peripheral mononuclear cells have been activated by oxidation with periodate .34 The neuraminosyl group was converted to a 7-carbon analogue, but the L-fucose and !-galactose residues were also oxidized. The response to periodate was reduced 5 50% by pretreatment with neuraminidase. The gangliosides from human peripheral blood lymphoctyes and neutrophils have been isolated and their structures determined by mass spectrometry and glycosidase hydrolysis results.35 The three were found in both types with ( 1 ) being the structures ( 1 ) - ( 3 ) major ganglioside in lymphocytes and ( 3 ) the major ganglioside in (2) may be a leukocyte-specific neutrophils. Structure glycosphingolipid. Large gangliosides with the general structure (4) were also isolated. The gangliosides in human leukocytes have been characterized and differences were observed between types of leukocyte .36 More ganglioside was present in normal leukemic cells than in granulocytes, while the complex gangliosides were more abundant in myelogenous cells than lymphocyte cells. Concanavalin A was shown to increase the incorporation of labelled 2-amino-2-deoxy-~-glucose into the gangliosides . 3 7 Thus, associated with cellular ganglioside synthesis is not only division but also occurs within a short time of lymphocyte activation.

Anti-asialoganglioside sera has been shown to cross-react with human blood-group N antigen .38 An immunocytochemical study of the surface ganglioside GM in 1 haemic cell lines of normal human bone marrow has been carried out similarly to ref. 33.39 The extent of incorporation was related to specific cell types and to their stage of maturation. The ganglioside patterns of horse, donkey,and mule brains have been deter~nined.~' Forebrains contained the highest concentration with the brain stern of the mule having the lowest value. The N-glycoloylneuraminic acid content was (3% of the total neuraminic acid. G M l , GDla, and G D l b were the major gangliosides. The gangliosides from equine kidney and spleen have been characterized as haematoside, GM2, G M ~ ,and G D , ~4.1 G D ~was found in the kidney and G D l b in the spleen. The relative proportions of 1-acetyl and N-glycoloyl neuraminic acids were also determined. Liposomes, composed of gangliosides from bovine brain and dipalmitoyllecithin, have been studied by e.s.r. spectro~copy.~~ At temperatures above the transition temperature ( 4 7 ° C ) the gangliosides diffuse freely in the lipid matrix,but at 19'C, in the gel state, the gangliosides cluster together. Gangliosides from bovine brain have been modified by attaching biotin hydrazide to the aldehydo group after periodate oxidation.43 The modified gangliosides were incorporated into mature rat thymocytes,and the results suggested that gangliosides may be involved in transmembrane communication during lymphocyte stimulation. A sulphated ganglioside has been isolated from bovine gastric mucosa, and its structure (5) was elucidated by partial acid hydrolysis, specific glycosidase degradation, periodate oxidation, and methylation analyses.44 71% of the neuraminic acid was the N-acetyl derivative. A sulphated ganglioside from bovine gastric mucosa had the structure (6) confirmed by the usual procedure^.^^ 65% of its neuraminic acid was the 1-acetyl derivative. A non-specific lipid-transfer protein, purified from bovine liver, will stimulate the transfer of the ganglioside GM, and neutral glycosphingolipids from phosphatidylcholine vesicles to erythrocyte ghosts .46 E-Glycoloylhaematoside and a ganglioside, containing N-glycoloyl-neurarninic acid and having an oligosaccharide chain identical to that of erythrocyte neuraminosylparagloboside, have been isolated from both normal and leukemic bovine blood were identified in lymphocytes. 47 Three other gangliosides

leukemic lymphocytes. The gangliosides have been isolated from bovine optic nerve and were found to be GM (1291, G D (~9 8 1~, G D l b ( 9 7 1 , G T ( 8~0 1 ~, G D ~ 1 (311, and Gq, (121, the concentrations being ug g-l wet tissue.48 Together they accounted for 97% of the total neuraminic acid present. The three L-fucogangliosides ( 7 ) - ( 9 ) have been isolated from porcine nervous tissue.49 A l l three were found in dorsal-root ganglia and spinal cord but only ( 7 ) and ( 9 ) in the forebrain. The chemical analyses were confirmed by mass-spectral analysis. The specificity of the neuraminosyltransferase from bovine liver microsomes has been determined.50 The transfer was solely to C-3 of E-galactose residues with no transfer to 2-acetamido-2deoxy-;-galactose residues. Eight gangliosides have been identified as constituents of ovine testis, with GMg, GD3, GMl,and GD , respectively, being the la most abundant.5 1 A new solvent system has been developed for t.1.c. of the gangliosides of rat ~ e r e b e l l u m . ~The ~ separation takes 1 h and virtually no tailing occurs. The considerable heterogeneity of this material was demonstrated by identifying 28 separate gangliosides. 2-Acetamino-2-deoxy-~-glucose has been shown to be incorporated 2-3 times higher into undernourished rats than normal rats.53 This enhanced incorporation was found in all brain areas. The turnover of the gangliosides was slower in young undernourished rats, relative to the controls, but greater in older rats. Microsomal gangliosides in rat brain have a higher initial incorporation of 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-~-mannose than synaptosomal g a n g l i ~ s i d e s . ~ ~ The gangliosides G T l b and G q l b were more highly labelled than other gangliosides,but a decrease in incorporation was observed on treatment with the convulsant pentylenetetrazol. The role of neuraminosyl compounds on choline uptake by synaptosomes has been studied.55 Neuraminidase treatment of synaptosomal fractions brought about a reduction in the uptake of choline. The activation of (Na+, K+) ATPase by the ganglioside G M ~has been shown to follow biphasic kinetics.56 The break is at 50nM G,l with a stable complex below that value and a loosely bound one above it. It was suggested that the activation was a specific phenomenon not related to the amphiphilic and ionic properties of the ganglioside but due to a modification of the membrane lipid

environment around the enzyme. The highest degree of labelling in homogenized neuronal perikarya from rat brain with f3Hl-5-acetylneuraminic acid has been found in subcellular fractions that also showed the highest specific activities for several ganglioside glycosyltransferases.57 The neuraminic acid-containing glycoconjugates remained associated with the membrane after all treatments tried except sodium deoxycholate extraction. Some of the results suggested that the gangliosides change their accessibility to added enzymes in the process of transport through the axon and incorporation into the synaptic membrane. An increased threshold for electrical stimulation to induce somatosensory-evoked potentials in peripheral nerves followed the transection and rejoining of the nerve in rats.58 The amount of this increase was diminished by treatment with gangliosides s o it was concluded that gangliosides enhance the rate of nervous regeneration. (UDP-2-acetamid0-2-deoxy-~-galactose-G~~-2GM2-Synthase acetamido-2-deoxy-D-galactosyltransferase) has been studied in Golgi-rich fraction from rat liver.59 Many requirements of this enzyme were demonstrated along with its physical properties. Methods for the chemical detection of gangliotetraosylceramide, the rat T lympohocyte macrophage-associated antigen, have been reported along with its cellular distribution.60 The glycolipids of murine lymphocyte subpopulations have been investigated. A neuraminosyl derivative of asialo GM,, which is sensitive to neuraminidase treatment, is increased in concentration in splenic lymphocytes.61 Asialo G M , is a normally occurring lipid and not an acid-hydrolysed product of G M ~ . The total glycolipids from thymocytes of leukemic A K R / J murine thymus have been shown to be greater than those of non-leukemic thymocytes.62 Of the individual gangliosides, GM3, GM2, GDla,and G D l b contents were higher while GM and G, were lower. Parallel 1 1 with these findings were the observations that two neuraminosyltransferases were also at an elevated level. During cells from mice into the differentiation of leukemia MI macrophages, the ganglioside content has been shown to change markedly.63 A several-fold increase in GM content (confirmed by lb neuraminidase treatment) was noted with a concomitant decrease in the dineuraminosylganglioside fraction. The glycolipid content of a murine cell line ( J L S - V 9 ) and its ouabain-resistant mutant clone ( J L S - V g OR) have been compared.64 The ganglioside, G M ~ ,content of

the mutant cells was 1.14 times that of the parent cells but, whereas 98% of the neuraminic acid in the parent cells was in the N-acetyl form, only 69% of that in the mutants was in the same form The ganglioside pattern of rabbit brain has been studied by twodimensional t .1 .c. and a ~ t o r a d i o g r a p h y . ~ ~Numerous minor components, representing previously uncharacterized gangliosides, were identified, several of which were novel L-fucose-containing gangliosides. The gangliosides of rabbit thymus have been analysed by a ganglioside mapping procedure.66 The G M gangliosides and the for 76.6 and 23.3%, combined G, and G , species accounted respectively, of the lipid-bound neuraminic acid. The gangliosides (10) and ( 1 1 ) accounted for 38.4 and 31.3%,respectively,of the total fraction while G D 3 (11.8%) and G M ~( 1 7 % ) accounted for the remainder. The GD3 and 62% of GM3 were in the N-glycoloyl form. The lacto-N-neotetraose backbone of ( 1 0 ) and ( 1 1 ) has been shown to be tissue specific for thymus with 70% of all thymus gangliosides possessing it.67 In addition the N-glycoloyl derivative of neuraminic acid represents 90% of that species. The mononeuraminosyl gangliosides of rabbit skeletal muscle have been analysed with G M representing 73% of the fraction.68 A 3 novel ganglioside, 5-acetylneuraminosyl lacto-N-noroctaosylceramide (12),constituted 5% of the fraction. Addition of gangliosides has induced a statistically significant increase in the number of neurites in the outgrowth zone of guinea-pig spinal ganglia.69 However, only a slight increase in neurite length was observed. Three novel gangliosides (13)-(15) have been isolated from frog fat body and their structures confirmed by the usual methods. 7 0 During phylogeny and early ontogeny of higher vertebrates the number of ganglioside fractions was reduced especially with regard to the more polar ~pecies.~'Arranging the different ganglioside fractions subsequent to their paths of formation, it has become apparent that in elasmobranch fish and embryonic chicken the third pathway is used whereas in the adult chicken there is a switch to the first and second pathway. The results are taken as further evidence of the recapitulation principle according to Haeckel's biogenetic rate. An unusual pattern of myelin gangliosides has been observed in avian central nervous system. 7 2 The total concentration was

considerably higher than in other mammalian species,with GM3 being present in concentrations similar to G M ~ . A new t.1.c. system has been used to separate complex gangliosides from embryonic chicken brain. 73 Ten fractions were detected, eight of them also being present in the brain of rays. Six of these were similar to the gangliosides GT39 GT2’ GTlc9 G Q l c , GPlc,and GPlb identified in cod brain. Four of these have been partially characterized and they contain neuraminic acid: sphingosine ratios of 4: 1 , 5: 1 , 6:1, and 7: 1. 7 4 Mild neuraminidase treatments yield G T and ~ G ~ D transiently ~ ~ but G M ~finally. During brain development the amounts of the forms with ratios of 6 and 7 decreased. The brain gangliosides of the ice fish Trematomus hansoni have an extremely high content of neuraminic acid which confers a high degree of polarity on the neuronal membrane and maintains their temperature^.^^ At least four gangliosides functionality at low were detected which were more highly substituted than the pentaneuraminosyl ganglioside G, 1 Two novel gangliosides have been isolated and characterized from the sea urchin Strongylocentrotus intermedius.76 The first had the structure ( 1 6 ) and the second was similar except that it contained a sulphate ester group at C-8 of the terminal neuraminic acid residue. The neuraminidation of gangliosides has been studied during maturation of cultured neurons.77 During the first 4 h GM and GD 3 3 are produced, after 12 h GD and GD are produced,and finally la lb and G T l b are produced. GD3 does not appear to be incorporated G M ~ into the membranes formed during the period of synaptogenesis in the same way as GDla and polyneuraminosylgangliosides. The ganglioside contents of SV40-transformed Balb/c3T3 cells (SV3TC cells) and concanavalin A-selected SV3T3 revertant cells have been determined and compared with untransformed cells. 7 8 There was a decrease in the concentration of higher gangliosides in transformed and revertant cells, but the content of GM3 in revertant cells was higher than in transformed or original cells. GM3 may have a role in growth control.

The 360 MHz ' H and 90.5 MHz 13C n.m.r. spectra of Q-galactosylceramides have been recorded in DMSO and show a 4 C l configuration of the sugar ring.82 In contrast to an aqueous solution, the hydroxymethylene group at C-6 can freely rotate A series of glycolipids has been around the C-6 : C-5 bond. analysed by 360 MHz I H n.m.r. s p e c t r o ~ c o p y .The ~ ~ resonance of all H-1 and H-2 as well as most H-3 and H-4 and some H-5 protons could be assigned with the aid of spin-decoupling difference spectroscopy. Regularities were observed in the type, anomeric configuration, site of glycoside linkage,and sugar residues which could be used for the structure of more complex glycolipids. Mass spectrometry has been used for the sequencing of the oligosaccharide chain of a dodecaglycosylceramide.84 This is the largest saccharide conclusively identified. Mass spectrometry, after t.l.c., has been used to identify the structures of glycolipid mixtures from a variety of species.85 The anomalous thermotropic phase-transition behaviour of 1 , 2 distearoyl-p-galactolipids has been investigated .86 The penetration of melittin and myelin basic protein into glycosphingolipid monolayers depends on the lipid polar head group, the protein concentration, and the initial surface pressure.87 The interaction leads to a modification of the surface properties of both the glycosphingolipid and the protein. Glycolipid synthetases have been measured in a two-phase scintillation assay carried out in a small The method should be suitable for many assays but the specific enzyme determined in this investigation was ceramide : UDP-E-glucose q-glucosyltransferase. has been derivatized for use as the D-Galactosylcerebroside ligand in affinity chromatography by ozonolysis of the sphingosine The ant i -gdouble bond followed by oxidation. 89

galactosylcerebroside antibodies purified on this materia.1 were highly specific. Proteins can be covalently bound to liposomes after periodate oxidation of the glycosphingolipids in the vesicle membrane. The method has potential for the antibody-mediated targeting of vesicles to cells. The synthetic glycolipids lactosyland melibiosylphosphatidylethanolamine can be incorporated into unilamellar l i p o ~ o m e s . ~ Both are agglutinated by Ricinus communis lectin but only the latter by Banderiaea simplicifolia isolectin I. Efficient fusion of phospholipid vesicles with monolayer cultures of eukaryotic cells has been accomplished by attaching glycolipid-containing vesicles to the cell surface by using a lectin displaying binding for both the cell surface and the glycol ipid Single bilayer vesicles of glycosphingolipids and phosphatidylcholine have been prepared and their physical Incubations with high-density properties determined.9 3 lipoprotein-3 resulted in the transfer o f the glycolipid, a process which did not occur in the absence of phosphatidylcholine. The complex has been further characterized,and only 69% of the lipid is transferred from the vesicles.94 The lipid compositions of axolemma-enriched fractions and myelin from human brains have been determined . 9 5 D-Galactolipid accounted for 25.8% of the lipid in the axolemma fractions, 83% of this being cerebrosides. The q-galactosylceramidase of human brain is activated by phosphatidylserine but the G M , ganglioside 8-P-galactosidase is not activated . 9 6 A review of sulpho-2-galactosylceramide has suggested that this glycolipid possesses multifunctional properties in biological membranes. The characteristic deposits of glycolipid in tissues from patients with Fabry’s disease have been studied by electron microscopy.9 8 Fourier transformation for the analysis of the distribution periodicity of the inclusions showed that, in synovial membrane and muscle, the inclusions had a monocrystalline character while in the other tissues they were amorphous or polycrystalline.

The importance of these observations to Gaucher's disease was discussed. The complete structure of a trisaccharide ( 1 7 ) from a patient l3 C n.m.r. with mannosidosis has been established by spectroscopy.lol One of the features of a patient with mannosidosis has been excessive gingival hyperplasia with storage oligosaccharides . ' 0 2 The trisaccharide ( 1 7 ) was of D-mannose-linked the predominant material in the urine, but tetraand pentasaccharides were more abundant in gingiva. The neutral glycolipid compositions of human gastric and colonic cancer tissues have been compared with those from normal The cancerous tissues had elevated levels of tissues.

Similar studies have confirmed these results, especially those of the L-fucoglycolipids, and further showed that the levels of sulpho-E-galactolipids were also elevated. lo4 Blood group A-active glycolipids were present in cancer tissue from two patients with blood group 0 but not in the associated healthy tissue. The liver and kidney of a patient with I-cell disease have been di- and tri-hexoside found to contain elevated levels of This was associated with a B-P-galactosidase ceramide. lo5 deficiency. It was concluded that the B-8-galactosidase deficiency in I-cell disease is a more specific phenomenon rather than a secondary inhibition as found in mucopolysaccharidoses. Evidence has been presented that Niemann-Pick disease, type C, is caused by the deficiency of an activating factor stimulating sphingomyelin and P-glucocerebroside degradation in the spleen of these patients.

that meconium is a rich source of glycolipids which allows the chemical fingerprinting of the blood-group type in individuals.' O 8 The, non-acidic glycosphingolipids of human cord blood erythrocytes from blood groups 0 and A have been characterized.lo9 Lactosylceramide and globoside were the major components. Increased amounts of penta- and hexa-glycosylceramides, which lacked L_-fucose substituents, were present and could be A and H biosynthetic precursors of ordinary blood - group glycosphingolipids. The glycosphingolipids of human plasma lipoproteins have been reviewed with specific interest in the way the different glycolipids exchange between the lipoproteins and erythrocytes. l o The identification of a blood-group Leb-active glycosphingolipid in plasma by m.s. and n.m.r. spectroscopy has suggested a new method of chemical blood-typing of human individuals.' A series of papers has been published on the immunochemistry o f the Lewis blood-group system. In the first, the complete structures of the oligosaccharide chains of the Lea-, Leb-, and H-type 1-active glycolipids have been established as (18)-(201, respectively. 1 1 * The second and third papers consider the m.s. analysis113 and 'H n.m.r. spectroscopy,ll 4 respectively, which have been used to establish these structures. Neutral glycosphingolipids have been isolated from the hairy cell leukemia and comprise cells of a patient with hairy lactosylceramide,and two higher glycolipids of g-glucosylceramide, the globo series which are similar to those found in human lymphocytes and chronic lymphocytic leukemia cells. The glycolipid pattern may be useful in classifying leukemias of uncertain origin. A high incidence of an autoantibody against the neutral glycolipid asialo G p l l has been observed in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus. l 6 Since no activity was shown against other glycolipids or gangliosides it was suggested that the antibody played a role in the pathogenesis of such neurological disorders. The glycosphingolipids of normal human lymphocytes have been separated by h.p.1.c. The major component was lactosylceramide with others being detected in smaller amount^."^ Purified B- and T-cell fractions had a similar complement of glycolipid but the B-cells contained significantly more of each component.

A blood-group A-specific tetrasaccharide (21) has been isolated and characterized from human urine.ll9 The sugar had A activity almost as great as that of the most active oligosaccharide isolated from soluble blood-group A substance. The alkyl-q-galactolipids from calf brain have been separated by h .p. 1 .c . 1 2 0 The two oligosaccharides B-~-mannopyranosyl-(l+4)-2-acetamido2-deoxy-;-glucose and 42-g- 6-D-mannopyranosylchitobiose accumulated in the kidney of a goat with mannosidosis.12' The amounts represented three times those found in the brain,but while lesions of the brain caused profound neurological disorders functional impairment of the kidney was not evident. Using an epithelial cell line derived from monkey kidney, it has been shown that E-galactosylcerebroside is present in the cytoplasm in close association with colchicine-sensitive microtubule-like subcellular structures.' The distribution of glycero-g-glucolipids in the mucous barrier of dog stomach fundus, body, and antrum has been investigated. 1 2 3 The content of neutral glycero-8-glucolipid in the antral portion was higher than that in the other two areas,but the content of sulphated glycolipid was even higher. The localization of q-galactosylcerebroside in distal tubules, ascending limbs of Henle's loops and collecting tubules of kidney, periportal bile ducts and hepatic parenchyma of liver, and bronchioles and alveoli of lungs has been demonstrated by an immunological method in these organs from hamsters.l 2 4 The existence was further confirmed by chemical analysis. The presence of SV40-specific glycolipid antigens in the plasma membrane, the nuclear membrane,and probably other inner membranes of SV40-transformed cells from hamsters has been indicated by immunofluorescence methods. 2 5 Incubation of NIL 2 c l cells, a cloned hamster cell line, with an equilibrium mixture of radioactive UDP-P-glucose and UDP-9-galactose has suggested that this is a useful method for determining the glycolipid composition of cultured cells. 26 Using the same cell line, the sequential glycosylations of endogenous glycosphingolipids have been studied using nucleotide sugars. 27 Differences were noted in the sequential glycosylation between cells harvested from confluent cultures and sparse cultures.

Furthermore, there was an indication that two distinct pools of each glycolipid were present. Precursor-product relationships do not exist among the main pool of each glycolipid. of UDP-q-galactosylceramide: The specific localization P-galactosyltransferase in heavy-myelin and membrane fractions of rat brain at an early age when myelination is just beginning has been suggested as a site for the myelination process.128 The turnover of glycolipids in the adult rat brain has been studied vivo by determining the half-life of the carbohydrate portion. 12’ These half-lives were much shorter than that of the total carbon pool, Since lactosylceramide had the shortest half-life, it was suggested that this glycolipid may serve as a branch point for the biosynthesis of cerebral gangliosides in vivo and not as a degradation product of more complex molecules. In various rat neural tumours, the contents of lactosylceramide were up to 80 g kg-l compared with normal neural tissue values of 10 g kg-l.130 The changes in lipid-bound surface carbohydrates during cell differentiation have been studied in the small intestine of rats. 1 3 ’ The g-glucosylceramide content increased 2-3 fold. There was little change in many of the complex glycolipids. In similar studies, the content of trihexosylceramide has been shown to increase up to about 13 days after p a r t ~ r i t i 0 n . l ~ ~ A novel sulphoglycosphingolipid ( 2 2 ) has been isolated from rat kidney and characterized by the usual methods. 3 3 The clearance of D-glucocerebrosidase by rat liver has shown the presence of two distinct enzyme forms with different recognition characteristics, 3 4 Neuraminosyl, q-galactosyl, and 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-~-glucosyl residues are important in the uptake of the enzyme. Modification of the enzyme to expose some of these residues results in increased delivery to specific cell and types. The disaccharides cx-~-mannopyranosyl-(l+2)-~-mannose a-E-mannopyranosyl-(l+3)-g-mannose have been synthesized from dolichyl-D-mannosylphosphate and g-mannose by rat liver membrane systems. 1 3 5 The proportion of each product was dependent on the assay conditions. and dolichyl The formation of dolichylphosphate-D-glucose diphosphate oligosaccharides in rat spleen lymphocytes has been studied. 136 It was observed that the phospho-oligosaccharide populations contain far fewer products which had been E-glucosylated than the dolichyldiphosphate oligosaccharides from

which they are derived, suggesting that the p-glucosyl units inhibit the reaction. Sulpho-D-galactosylacylalkyl glycerol is enriched in a plasma membrane fraction from adult rat testis.137 By comparing 11 separate tissues from rats, the presence of this lipid has been shown to be restricted to the testis.'38 Several novel sulpholipids were detected during this study. L-Fucose-terminated glycoconjugates are recognized by pinocytosis receptors on macrophages where the uptake of 6-P-glucuronidase is blocked. 3 9 An anti-glycosphingolipid antibody has been prepared and purified and has been used to demonstrate the localization of asialo G M ~ on the tips of the surface membrane of rat ascites hepatomas, 4 0 Analogues of ceramides which inhibit ;-glucocerebroside synthetase in mouse brain have been in~estigated.'~' The most potent compound tested was 2-decanoylamino-3-morpholino-1-phenylpropanol. An examination of the effects suggested that the active region of the enzyme contains four active sites, one of them being an anionic moiety that binds the 9-glucose residue in an activated form. The concentrations of myelin-characteristic D-galactolipid in organotype cultures of newborn mouse cerebellum have been determined by h . p.l.~.'~~ These lipids are detectable at 9 days and increase steadily in concentration until the explants are more than 3 weeks old. The g-galactosylceramide sulphotransferase activity of the cerebrum and cerebellum of normal and jimpy mice has been measured during postnatal development. 1 4 3 The activity was related to net sulphatide synthesis and was 25-505 lower in the brain parts of the mutants when myelination was taking place in the controls. The effective antibody in an antiserum having anti-natural killer cell activity and raised against mouse brain tissue is directed against the cell-surface glycolipid asialo G M .144 ~ The distribution of the same glycolipid in the small intestine of the mouse has been determined using an immunofluorescence staining method.145 Clear staining o f the brush border and basolateral membranes of epithelial cells, cell membranes of cryptic cells,and some secretory granules was observed. q-Glucosylceramide, on intravenous injection in mice, is stored predominantly in the liver and has a half-life of 3.5 days.146 High levels of this lipid were found in the bile of one patient

and the liver of two patients with a biliary obstruction,which suggests a relationship between the biliary excretion of this lipid and Gaucher's disease. The glycolipid on the surface of natural killer cells from mouse spleen has been identified as asialo G, 147 1' A method has been developed for the extraction of carbohydrate-defined Ia antigens from murine spleen and serum cells.14* The antigen appeared to have a glycolipid structure with the antigenic activity residing in an oligosaccharide unit containing more than seven monosaccharide residues. Two marker glycolipids of alloantigen-activated murine T-lymphocytes have been partially characterized as a-E-galactosyl6-IJ-galactosyl-P-glucosylceramide and the same ceramide with a 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-~-~-glucosyl residue at the non-reducing terminal position. 149 A monoclonal antibody, directed to the stage-specific embryonic antigen in mice, has been shown to react with a branched glycosphingolipid similar in structure to Ii antigen. 150 Two related sublines of the mouse lymphoma L5178Y, which were selected for their different susceptibility to natural killer cell-mediated lysis, have different glycolipid patterns. 15' The ~ was not sensitive line contains a high level of asialo G M which detected in the resistant line. However, there was no correlation between asialo G M ~ content and sensitivity in sublines. Modification of the surface of distearoylphosphatidylcholine vesicles with synthetic glycolipids has dramatically affected the rate of uptake of these vesicles by murine peritoneal The high rate of uptake of 6-amino-6-deoxy-Pmacrophage. 15' mannose-modified vesicles is inhibited by cytochalin B and chloroquine but not by colchicine, indicating that the mechanism is phagocytosis. These vesicles remain intact after phagocytosis as aggregates of fused and intact vesicles surrounded by a single bilayer membrane structure. Several blood-group-type glycolipids from the small intestine of an individual rabbit have been identified by select-ion monitoring. 5 3 The dominating species was a hexaglycosylceramide group B-type sequence, while a second with a blood hexaglycosylceramide having a blood-group A-type sequence was also found. into lipid-linked The incorporation of [ 2-3H]-g-mannose is stimulated by oligosaccharides of rabbit mammary gland

As the disaccharide conjugate was not agglutinated, it may not protrude far enough from the surface to react with the antibody. The specificities and the sizes and shapes of the antibody combining sites in the above systems have been investigated by quantitative precipitin and precipitin-inhibition studies.157 The sizes of 15 antisera have been determined and all had combining sites in the range isomaltotriose to isomaltohexaose. One of the antisera to stearylisomaltopentaose has been separated into IgM and IgG fractions, and the antibody binding sites were studied.158 Both were similar to unfractionated antibodies with sites complementary to isomaltotetraose. Another antiserum had two site sizes, one for isomaltopentaose and the other for isomaltotetraose. The specific antibodies elicited in rabbits against D-glucosylceramide did not cross-react with E-galactosylceramide or ~ u 1 p h a t i d e . l ~ ~ They did react with the natural hapten present in red-blood-cell membranes of sheep. Very low levels of glycolipid have been found in chick embryonic brain yet nearly adult levels were reached by the 5th day. 160 The deposition of mono-D-galactosyldiglyceride in the cerebrum was unique in that all the secretion occurred between the 16th day of embryonic life and the 5th day after hatching, a period characterized by a high rate of myelination. The spermatozoa of the fresh-water bivalve Hyriopsis schlegelii have a complex spectrum of neutral glycolipids. Two of the minor components (24) and (251,which accounted for <3% of the total neutral glycolipid,were characterized. This is the first report of E-xylose residues being present in a ceramide. Vesicular stomatitis virus-infected BHK cells when deprived of !-glucose are unable to incorporate !-glucose into the oligosaccharide-lipid intermediates and, consequently, the G protein.162 A unique late effect of rubella virus infection of BHK21113s cells was the formation of a glycolipid not detected in

5 Plant Glycolipids A rapid procedure has been reported for the purification of glycolipids free from surface-active contaminants and suitable for the measurement of surface-pressure isotherms.' 6 5 A major plant glycolipid, mono-P-galactosyldiglyceride, gave very reproducible results with the method. The motional properties of four mono-P-galactosyldiacylglycerols have been determined using 13C n.m.r. relaxation times of the spectroscopy. 6 6 The longitudinal D-galactosyl carbon atoms were essentially constant. The use of stearoyl l a c t y l a t e ~ ' ~and ~ sucrose mono- and diesters 1 6 8 in breadmaking has been described.

The saturated mono-D-galactosyl derivatives did not form dispersions suitable for fluorescence probe studies of the phase transition. An alkylether linkage-containing glycero-oligolipid has been isolated from germinating mung beans and the structure ( 2 6 ) confirmed. 1 7 2 It has been established that there are at least two sites for desaturation of 18:2 fatty acid to 18:3, one o f them being and which is associated with mono-P-galactosyldiglyceride

A lipid-bound oligosaccharide has been isolated from pea cotyledons incubated with E - m a n n 0 ~ e . l ~It ~ appeared to be identical to one obtained from rat liver which is known to contain three !-glucose, nine P-mannose, and two 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-D-glucose residues. Enzymes were present in the same tissue and soybean roots which catalysed the transfer of part of the oligosaccharide chain to endogenous protein. Young cassava (Manihot esculenta) leaves have a low lipid content, 25% of which is glycolipid.’76 This mixture consists of and steryl glycosides, mono- and di-E-galactosyldiglycerides, cerebrosides. Mono- and di-D-galactosyldiglycerides were the major glycolipids of ungerminated pollen from Crotalaria juncea.17’ In growing pollen tubes, glycolipid biosynthesis from acetate has been enhanced by the presence o f CAMP but not by boric acid. Spinach thylakoids have been fractionated by detergent treatment and more than 80% of the g-galactolipid was separated from the chlorophyll-protein complexes. 78 Since the integrity of these complexes was maintained on detergent treatment, the free P-galactolipid apparently originates from the lipid matrix of the thylakoid membrane. Further studies have shown that specific associations between endogenous !-galactolipid and chlorophyllprotein complexes do not occur after membrane solubilization. Other studies have been carried out on the same tissue. Alterations in the pH of isolation had no effect on peptide patterns but a great effect on 9-galactolipid composition. 17’ The changes could be explained by interlipid 9-galactosyl transfer during isolation at pH 7.2, since there was a reduction in the concentration o f the mono-derivative with corresponding increases in the tri- and tetra-derivatives. The rates and pattern of P-galactolipid synthesis have been studied at different pH values. I8O The highest rates of interlipid E-galactosyl transferase are seen at pH 6.0 in diacylglycerol-poor envelopes Intact and at pH 7.2 in diacylglycerol-rich envelopes.

chloroplasts behave essentially as isolated envelopes. Using spinach and tobacco membranes, lipid-bound !-glucosecontaining oligosaccharides have been synthesized which are similar to those found in animals and yeasts.18’ These oligosaccharides were based on (Glc),(Man)g(GlcNAc)2 where is 2 or -

Most of the polar lipids in tobacco leaves vary in concentration with the chlorophyll content during leaf development and senescence. Of the individual polar lipids the greatest changes were in the lipids associated with the chloroplast membranes, namely mono- and di-D-galactosyl, and sulphoquinovosyldiglycerides. The mono- and di-q-galactosyldiglyceride contents o f wheat and barley chloroplasts are reduced under water stress. 1 8 3 The reduction was greater in the more water-requiring cultivars with the less water-requiring cultivars showing a good recovery on irrigation. Two D-glycosylsterols, B-~-glucopyranosyl-(l+3)-sitosterol and B-cellotriosyl-(1+3)-sitosterol,have been isolated from the leafy stem of rice.184 A new type o f monoglycosylceramide has been isolated from the alkali-stable lipid fraction o f rice bran.185 D-Glucose was the major sugar residue present. The pollen of Oenothera missouriensis is rich in monoglycosylceramides and also in acidic glycosphingolipids. 1 8 6 Compatible pollination leads to a large increase in monoglycosylceramides whereas incompatible self-pollination leads to a decrease in the triglycosylceramide content, irrespective of the genotype of the flower. Chloroplast lipids have been extracted from varieties of common groundsel (Senecio vulgaris), common lambsquarter (Chenopodium album), and redroot pigweed (Amaranthus retroflexus) and analysed for differences between triazine-resistant and -sensitive The resistant varieties had higher biotypes. 18’ mono-D-galactosyldiglyceride contents and lower di-P-galactosyldiglyceride contents.

6 Microbial Glycolipids Mono- and di-P-glucosyldiglycerides are the dominant lipids of the Acholeplasma laidlawii membrane.' 8 9 The di-D-glucosyl derivative forms a lamellar liquid-crystalline phase while the monoderivative forms a reversed hexagonal phase. In a mixture, a reversed cubic phase can be formed at physiological temperatures. The structure of the cubic phase is composed of aggregates where the lipids can diffuse over microscopical distances. These glycolipids can be extracted by different detergents and the results indicated that the mono-E-glucosyl-diglyceride was involed in anchoring the protein D12 in the membrane.lgO The membrane-associated lipoglycan from A.granularum has been shown to possess 1 2 of the repeating units ( 2 7 ) in a linear form attached to a diacylgly~erol.~~' The composition of Bdellovibrio bacteriovorus lipopolysaccharide has been determined in cells grown axenically and intraperiplasmically on Escherichia coli or Pseudomonas put ida. 9 2 The axenically grown cells contained ;-glucose and 2-amino-2,6-dideoxy-~-galactose as the sole sugar residues, while the intraperiplasmically grown cells contained the above components plus some derived from the substrate cells. However, since !-galactose was not present, it was suggested that only the lipid A component was transferred. The major sulphated glycolipid of the halophile Halobacterium salinarium has been characterized by m.s. and n.m.r. spectroscopy as a trihexosyl glycerol CZ0-diether with the sulphate group being on the non-reducing terminal hexose residue.lg3 It may be identical to a similar lipid characterized previously from H.cutirubrum. Three minor glycolipids have been isolated from the halophile H.cutirubrum and their structures characterized as ( 2 8 1 , the desulphated product from ( 2 8 ) and ( 2 9 ). l g 4 The carbohydrate contents of the lipopolysaccharide antigens from three strains of Klebsiella pneumoniae have been determined, but the presence of capsular antigens has not been demonstrated. 9 5 Two unusual phosphoglycolipids, which account for 64% of the total cellular lipids, have been isolated from the methanogenic archaebacterium Methanospirillum hunRatei and are derivatives of 1-dibiphytanyl diglycerol tetraether. l g 6 One of the free hydroxy groups is glycosidically linked to a disaccharide, the two

disaccharide residues being identified as ( 3 0 ) and ( 3 1 ) . 1 9 7 A new synthesis of cord factors and analogues has been reported involving benzylation of 6,6'-di-~-trityl-trehalose.' 9 8 The benzyl 6,6'-di-Q-methane-sulphonyl derivative is converted via the derivative to the cord factors. The C-mycosidic glycopeptidolipid typing antigens from all serovars in the Mycobacterium avium/M. intracellulare/ M.scrofulaceum complex have been examined to varying extent,and some of them consist of short acetylated oligosaccharides linked to a common fatty acyl-peptidyl-Q-(3,4-di-Q-methyl-L-rhamnose) 'core' 9 9 A basal rhamnosyl-6-deoxytalosyl disaccharide is always linked to allo-threonine. The glycopeptidolipid antigens in their structural principals, cellular location,and physiological role bear a striking miniscular resemblance to cell-wall components of other bacteria such as the pantigenic and R-antigenic lipopolysaccharides. A novel phenolic glycolipid has been isolated from M.leprae which is distinct from, although related to, that from M. kansasii. 2 o o The methylated glycolipid contained residues of 2,3di-g-methylrhamnose, 3-Q-methylrhamnose, and 3,6-diiQ-methylglucose. The endotoxic glycolipid from Salmonella minnesota, when injected into mice, has produced increased levels of aminopyrine-N-demethylase and aniline hydroxylase activities in the liver.201 A glycolipid has been isolated from the cellular slime mould Dictyostelium discoideum and characterized as A 22-stigmasteryl-Dglucoside.202 The amount present was higher in the vegetative-stage cells, late aggregation-stage cells, and l-day sorocarps than in cells of other stages. A new glycolipid from a strain of Nocardia caviae has been characterized as a 2',3"-di-~-acyl-~-~-glucopyranosyl-(1+2)-~glyceric acid with myristic, palmitic,and stearic acids being the principal acyl substituents. 203 A B -D-mannosylceramide has been identified in the hepatopancreas of the fresh-water bivalve Hyriopsis schlegelii and represents 5% of the monohexosylceramide fraction. * 0 4
