Structure of the Oligosaccharide Chain of the SR-Type Lipopolysaccharide of Ralstonia solanacearum Toudk-2
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Aiming at improving classification and taxonomy of Gram-negative phytopathogenic bacteria, we studied the structure of the lipopolysaccharide of Ralstonia solanacearum. Mild acid hydrolysis of the lipopolysaccharide of strain Toudk-2 followed by gel chromatography resulted in an O-polysaccharide and two oligosaccharide fractions. The smallest-size oligosaccharide fraction was studied by sugar analysis, high-resolution electrospray ionization mass spectrometry, and, after fractionation by anion-exchange chromatography on HiTrap Q, by one- and two-dimensional (1)H and (13)C NMR spectroscopy. It was found that the isolated oligosaccharides consist of the lipopolysaccharide core with one O-polysaccharide repeat (O-unit) attached. The core exists in two major glycoforms differing from each other in a lateral octulosonic acid residue, which is either D-glycero-D-talo-oct-2-ulosonic acid or 3-deoxy-D-manno-oct-2-ulosonic acid. A peculiar feature of the core is the occurrence of 4-amino-4-deoxy-L-arabinose nonstoichiometrically linked to a heptose residue. The full structures of the core and the biological O-unit as well as the site of the attachment of the O-unit to the core were established.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
