Abstract:

DEAE-52 cellulose column and Sephacryl S-300 gel column were used to isolate and purify mannatide to give four homogeneous glycopeptides termed as MT1-A, MT1-B, MT2-A and MT2-B. The chemical structure of MT1-A, MT1-B and MT2-B were elucidated using monosaccharide composition analysis, methylation analysis, 1H-nuclear magnetic resonance(1H NMR) spectroscopy, infrared(IR) spectroscopy and amino acids analysis. It was concluded that the monosaccharide composition and connection type of sugar residues of MT1-A, MT1-B and MT2-A were the same as MT2-A reported before while the molecular weight and amino acid content of four homogeneous glycopeptides were slightly different. The 1H NMR spectrum of MT2-A was regarded as the standard reference spectrum and the anomeric region of each spectrum(δ 4.89—5.90) was selected as the identification region. The 1H NMR spectra of MT1-A, MT1-B, MT2-A and different batches of mannatide were compared with the standard reference spectrum, using the correlation coefficient to quantitatively calculate the similarity. The results showed that mannatide was a mixture of several kinds of homoge-neous glycopeptides with the same glycan structure but different molecular weight and amino acid content.
