Structural analysis of oligomeric fructans from excised leaves of Lolium temulentum
1992
Sims, I.M. | Pollock, C.J. | Horgan, R.
Individual fructan tri-, tetra- and pentasaccharide isomers in neutral, water-soluble extracts from Lolium temulentum were purified and the linkages present in these isomeric oligosaccharides were analysed by combined GC-mass spectrometry of partially methylated alditol acetates. 1-Kestose and neokestose were the most abundant trisaccharides with 6-kestose present in much lower amounts. Analysis of isomers of DP 4 and 5 showed that multiple linkage types were present with structures based on all three trisaccharides. Oligosaccharides based on neokestose but with 2,6 linkages between adjacent fructose residues have not been previously detected in higher plants.
