An acidic polysaccharide which coats young leaves and stems of Junsai (Brasenia schreberi J. F. Gmel) was extracted with hot water and purified with cetylpyridinium chloride. The polysaccharide comprises d-galactose (32~40%), d-mannose (10~14%), l-fucose (13~16%), l-rhamnose (6~9%), d-xylose (2~7%), l-arabinose (2~3%), d-glucuronic acid (19~29%) and a trace of d-glucose. These proportions are different, depending on the habitats. Methylated polysaccharide yielded, on acid hydrolysis, more than 17 methyl sugar fragments, which included 2, 4, 6-tri- and 3, 4, 6-tri-O-methyl-d-galactose, 2, 3-di-O-methyl-d-glucuronic acid, 2,4-di-O-methyl-l-fucose, 2,4-di-O-methyl-l-rhamnose, di- and mono-O-methyl-d-galactoses and -d-mannoses, in addition to tri-O-methyl-l-arabinose, -d-xylose, -l-fucose, -l-rhamnose and tetra-O-methyl-d-galactose. These results indicate that the polysaccharide has an extremely highly branched structure, consisting mainly of (l → 3)-linked d-galactose, l-rhamnose and l-fucose, (l → 2)-linked...
