Determination of distinctive carbohydrate signatures obtained from the <i>Aeromonas hydrophila</i> (chemotype II) core oligosaccharide pinpointing the presence of the 4‐<i>O</i>‐phosphorylated 5‐<i>O</i>‐linked Kdo reducing end group using electrospray ionization quadrupole orthogonal time‐of‐flight mass spectrometry and tandem mass spectrometry
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The electrospray quadrupole orthogonal time-of-flight mass spectrometric (ESI-QqTOF-MS) structural elucidation of the core oligosaccharide of Aeromonas hydrophila (chemotype II) lipopolysaccharide has been investigated and it was demonstrated that it contained an 4-O-phosphorylated Kdo reducing end group, which was glycosylated by the remaining outer core oligosaccharide through its O-5 position. After releasing the core oligosaccharide from the native LPS with acid, the phosphorylated Kdo residue eliminated phosphoric acid, to produce a core oligosaccharide containing a mixture of diastereomeric 4,8- and 4,7-anhydro-alpha-keto acids and an open-chain olefinic Kdo residue. The characteristic glycone sequence was elucidated by collision-induced dissociation tandem mass spectrometry (CID-MS/MS) of the protonated molecule of the native core oligosaccharide. In addition, the analysis of the Hakomori permethylated core oligosaccharide was carried out by electrospray ionization quadrupole orthogonal time-of-flight mass spectrometry (ESI-QqTOF-MS) and matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI)-QqTOF-MS analyses. The presence of more than nine isobaric isomers of this core was detected. The CID-MS/MS analysis of the various protonated permethylated core oligosaccharide molecules showed a similar and diagnostic fragmentation pattern. The over-methylation of the permethylated core oligosaccharide containing either the 4,7- or the 4,8-anhydro-alpha-keto acid unit and the open-chain olefinic Kdo unit was reported. It was realized that the extra minor satellite signals obtained in the ESI-QqTOF-MS and MALDI-TOF-MS analyses were dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) stable covalent addition products, which have occurred by a Michael addition on the 4,8-Kdo exocyclic double bond. The occurrence of this series of covalent addition products during the MS analysis of a permethylated core oligosaccharide should be considered as 'carbohydrate-distinctive signatures' establishing and confirming the presence of a 4-O-phosphorylated-5-O-linked Kdo reducing end group.

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.
