^a Structures of the K71 CPS and OS are shown in Fig. 3. ¹H NMR chemical shifts are shown in italics.

^b R indicates glyceraldehyde in the hydrated form HOCH₂CH(O–)CH(OH)₂.

^c Signals for the N-acetyl group of GlcpNAc are at δ_С 24.0 (Me) and 175.6 (CO), δ_H 2.07 in the CPS, δ_С 23.8 (Me) and 176.2 ppm (CO), δ_H 2.04 in the OS.

^d OS, oligosaccharide.

^e Bold face text refers to the residues detected and their order
