Fig. 1. Chemical-repeating unit structures of group B streptococcus (GBS) capsular polysaccharides (CPSs). CPSs are classified in three class depending on similarity of chemical structures and the enzymes involved in the assembly of the repeating units. (A) Class 1: the repeating unit consists of two sugars containing a β (1→3) linked side chain whose terminus possesses a sialic acid residue. (B) Class 2: the repeating unit consists of three sugars containing a β (1→6) linked side chain whose terminus possesses a sialic acid residue. (C) Class 3: CPS has no similarity with any other GBS CPSs. Fig. 1. Chemical-repeating unit structures of group B streptococcus (GBS) capsular polysaccharides (CPSs).
