The homogeneity of AMP-1 was determined by HPLC and capillary electrophoresis that gave a single peak. AMP-1 is composed of galactose and mannose in a molar ratio of 1.0∶1.9. Its molecular weight is 3.8×10 3. The structure of glycan was elucidated by IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR and methylation analysis, and on the basis of the results was suggested that AMP-1 contain a backbone of β-(1→2)-D-galactose residues with branches of single β-D-mannose residue being substituted at the O-6. Bioactivity assay of AMP-1 showed that it could inhibit growth of Sarcoma 180 and Lewis pulmonary carcinoma implanted in mice.展开更多
