Seven new pentasaccharides (-), rehmaglupentasaccharides A-G, were isolated from the air-dried roots of . Their structures were established from the spectroscopic data obtained and by chemical evidence. The known verbascose () and stachyose () were also obtained in the current investigation, and the structure of stachyose was unequivocally defined using X-ray diffraction data. Compounds - were tested for their cytotoxicity against five human tumor cell lines, influence on dopamine receptor activation, and proliferation effects against .

The symbiosis between R7A and Gifu is an important model system for investigating the role of bacterial exopolysaccharides (EPS) in plant-microbe interactions. Previously, we showed that R7A mutants that are affected at an early stage of EPS synthesis and in lipopolysaccharide (LPS) synthesis induce effective nodules on Gifu after a delay, whereas mutants affected in the biosynthesis of the EPS side chain induce small uninfected nodule primordia and are impaired in infection. The presence of a halo around the mutant when grown on Calcofluor-containing media suggested the mutant secreted a truncated version of R7A EPS.

is a vine native to the north and northeast region of Brazil, where its roots are traded as a depurative and laxative remedy with the name of Brazilian jalap in traditional medicine. Procedures for the isolation, purification by recycling HPLC, and structure elucidation of three undescribed resin glycosides are presented herein. Hamiltonin I () represents a macrocyclic structure of a tetrasaccharide of (11)-hydroxyhexadecanoic acid.
