High impact information on Glucuronic acid, 4-O-methyl-

Further structural analysis of cell walls revealed that although wild-type xylans contain both glucuronic acid and 4-O-methylglucuronic acid residues, xylans from fra8 retain only 4-O-methylglucuronic acid, indicating that the fra8 mutation results in a specific defect in the addition of glucuronic acid residues onto xylans [1].
Isolation and characterization of a 4-O-methylglucuronic acid-containing glycosphingolipid from spermatozoa of a fresh water bivalve, Hyriopsis schlegelii [2].
13C nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy revealed that the anomeric composition is similar to the Enterolobium cyclocarpum exudate, however no 4-O-methylglucuronic acid was detected for E. contortisilliquum [3].
Specific and high titer antisera against 4-O-methylglucuronic acid-containing glycosphingolipid (Lipid IV) from spermatozoa of the fresh-water bivalve, Hyriopsis schlegelii, were raised in rabbits [4].
