The acidic O-specific polysaccharide chain (O-antigen) of the lipopolysaccharide (LPS) of Proteus mirabilis strain D52 was studied using chemical analyses along with 1H-NMR and 13C-NMR spectroscopy, including 2D COSY, TOCSY, ROESY, H-detected 1H,13C and 1H,31P HMQC experiments. The polysaccharide was found to contain d-ribitol 5-phosphate (d-Rib-ol-5-P) and ethanolamine phosphate (Etn-P) and has the following structure: This structure is identical with that of the O-polysaccharide of P. mirabilis O33 strain 59/57, and, hence, P. mirabilis D52 belongs to the same Proteus serogroup O33. Serological studies with O-antiserum against P. mirabilis D52 confirmed this but showed that the LPS species of P. mirabilis 59/57 and D52 are not identical, having different epitopes in the core region. A serological cross-reactivity of P. mirabilis D52 O-antiserum was observed with LPS of two other Proteus strains, P. mirabilis O16 and P. penneri 103, which have structurally different O-polysaccharides. The role of charged groups, Rib-ol-5-P and Etn-P in the immunospecificity is discussed.
