Abstract: The aim of this study was to determine the binding site of uronic acid in the structure of Tremella fuciformis polysaccharide (TP). TP was partially acid hydrolyzed and further purified by Sephadex LH-20 column to afford oligosaccharide. The PMP derivative of oligosaccharide was analyzed by MSn,the results showed that it was acidic saccharide (mainly disaccharide and minor trisaccharide). Combined with the results of sugar composition,methylation and NMR analysis,it was indicated that β-D-glucopyranosyluronic acid residue was linked to the α-D-mannopyranose by (1→2)-linkage as non-reducing end.

Key words: Tremella fuciformis polysaccharide, partial acid hydrolysis, MSn, NMR, linked site of uronic acid
