Title Value
Polysaccharide Xanthan gum
Source Name Xanthomonas campestris
Weight
Main Glycosidic Bond(s)
β-Glcp-(1→4)
α-Manp-(1→2)
Main Chain β-1,4-linked D-glucose repeating units
Side Chain Trisaccharide sidechains at every other glucose unit at C-3, consisting of (1,4)-β-D-glucuronic acid unit sandwiched between a-1,2-D-mannose with an acetyl group attached to C-6 and β-D-mannose. The terminal mannose residues are usually pyruvated.
