The polysaccharide chains of the lipopolysaccharides of the Proteus mirabilis serogroups O26 and O30 were studied using sugar and methylation analysis and 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy, including two-dimensional correlation spectroscopy and rotating-frame NOE spectroscopy. The polysaccharides were found to be acidic due to the presence of d-galacturonic acid and its amide with l-lysine in serogroup O26 or d-glucuronic acid in serogroup O30, and the structures of their tetrasaccharide repeating units were established. The O26-specific polysaccharide is structurally and serologically related to the O-specific polysaccharide of P. mirabilis O28, which includes amides of d-GalA with l-lysine and l-serine
