DoLPHiN: A structural and functional database of natural polysaccharides with health benefits

Title Value
Polysaccharide RP
Source Name Portulaca oleracea
Weight 87 kDa
Main Glycosidic Bond(s)
β-Galp-(1→3)
β-Galp-(1→6)
β-Galp-(1→3,6)
β-Araf-(1→5)
β-Araf-(1→3)
Main Chain RP was suggested to be a galacturonan mainly composed of α-1,4-linked GalA residues which were highly methyl-esterified and partially acetylated
Side Chain The predominant amount of GalA with small amount of Rha indicated that RP might be a pectic polysaccharide. In addition, other small proportions of sugars Xyl、 Glc and GlcA were also detected, which have been reported sometimes present in the side chains.
