What is Structural Features of a Sulphated, Fucose-containing Polysaccharide from the Brown Seaweed Dictyota Dichotoma about?

A sulphated heteropolysaccharide (N 15 % of the acid-extractable material) isolated from the brown alga Dictyota dicJzotoma contains residues of D-glucuronic acid, D-galactose, D-mannose, D-xylose, and r\_-fucose'. Partial hydrolysis of the polysaccharide with acid gave one neutral and two acidic oligosaccharides. The behaviour towards periodate of the polysaccharide before and after partial hydrolysis, alkali-treatment, and methanolysis has been studied. Evidence is thereby provided that the polysaccharide is partially sulphated and composed of (1+4)-linked residues of D-glucuronic acid, D-galactose, D-mannose, and D-xylose, and (1+2)-linked Lfucose.
