The heteroxylan from the hybrid Paulownia elongata/Paulownia fortunei is an O-acetyl-(4-O-methylglucurono)xylan with an acetylation degree (DS) of 0.59 and a molecular weight (M-w) of 29 kDa. The heteroxylan backbone is composed by (1 -> 4)-linked beta-D-xylopyranosyl units (Xylp) partially ramified with terminal (1 -> 2)-linked 4-O-methyl-alpha-D-glucuronosyl (MeGlcpA) and a small proportion of alpha-D-glucuronosyl (GlcpA) residues in a molar ratio of Xylp:(MeGlcpA+GlcpA) of 20:1. Roughly half of the beta-D-xylo-pyranosyl units in the backbone are acetylated: 3-O-acetylated (22 mol %), 2-O-acetylated (23 mol %) or 2,3-di-O-acetylated (7 mol %). ESI-MS and MALDI-MS studies of partially hydrolyzed heteroxylan revealed a random distribution of O-Ac and Me-GlcpA within the backbone. However, the frequency of substitution with O-Ac along the backbone is not uniform and the molecular regions that did not contain MeGlcpA substituents possessed an acetylation degree significantly lower than the average DS of the xylan.
