Abstract:
Objective To investigate the polysaccharides constituents from the transgenic crown gall cultures of Panax quinquefolium. Methods The crude polysaccharides PPQ50 and PPQ70 were extracted by water-ethanol method from the crown gall of P. quinquefolium. Four polysaccharides, named PPQ50-1, PPQ50-2, PPQ70-1, and PQ70-2, were isolated and purified by DEAE Sepharose and Sephacry S-100 column chromatography. Results The homogeneity of four polysaccharides was examined by gel chromatography and polarimetry. Their molecular weights were determined by gel filtration chromatography. They were 4.7?104, 2.9?105, 7.5?104, and 1.3?105, respectively. The sugar composition was analyzed by HPLC. The polysaccharides are mainly composed of neutral sugar particularly of D-glucose. The structure elucidation of PPQ50-2 was also supported by 1H-NMR and 13C-NMR spectroscopy. Conclusion All of the four polysaccharides are first isolated and purified from the transgenic crown gall cultures of P. quinquefolium.The result shows the PPQ50-2 and PPQ70-2 are both glucans.
