    Abstract

    Structural analysis by 1D and 2D 1H NMR spectroscopy of three acidic O-linked oligosaccharide alditols, released from porcine zona pellucida glycoproteins by alkaline borohydride treatment, afforded the following structures: Galβ1-4(6SO4-)GlcNAcβ1-3Galβ1-4GlcNAcβ1-3Galβ1-3GalNAc-ol; Neu5Gcα2-3Galβ1-4(6SO4-)GlcNAcβ1-3Galβ1-4GlcNAcβ1-3Galβ1-3GalNA c-ol; Neu5Acα2-3Galβ1-4(6SO4-)GlcNAcβ1-3Galβ1-4GlcNAcβ1-3Galβ1-3GalNA c-ol. These oligosaccharides are the smallest compounds that contain the structural elements which are present in the acidic, high-molecular mass O-linked carbohydrate chains of porcine zona pellucida glycoproteins.
