The cell-associated glucans produced by Burkholderia solanacearum and Xanthomonas campestris pv. citri were isolated by trichloroacetic acid treatment and gel permeation chromatography. The compounds obtained were characterized by compositional analysis, matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization mass spectrometry, and high-performance anion-exchange chromatography. B. solanacearum synthesizes only a neutral cyclic glucan containing 13 glucose residues, and X. campestris pv. citri synthesizes a neutral cyclic glucan containing 16 glucose residues. The two glucans were further purified by high-performance anion-exchange chromatography. Methylation analysis revealed that these glucans are linked by 1,2-glycosidic bonds and one 1,6-glycosidic bond. Our 600-MHz homonuclear and 1H-13C heteronuclear nuclear magnetic resonance experiments revealed the presence of a single alpha-1,6-glycosidic linkage, whereas all other glucose residues are beta-1,2 linked. The presence of this single alpha-1,6 linkage, however, induces such structural constraints in these cyclic glucans that all individual glucose residues could be distinguished. The different anomeric proton signals allowed complete sequence-specific assignment of both glucans. The structural characteristics of these glucans contrast with those of the previously described osmoregulated periplasmic glucans.
