  1. For comparison the characteristics of the polymers produced by the A. chroococcum and P. beijingensis GtfD 4,6-α-GTases are included as well.
  2. aThe data represents the ratios of integration of the surface areas of the (α1 → 6) linkage signal at 4.97 ppm and the (α1 → 4) linkage signal at 5.36 ppm in the 1H NMR spectra of the polysaccharides (see Fig. S2). bThe average molecular mass of polysaccharide was determined in duplicate. cTaken from Gangoiti et al.20. dTaken from Gangoiti et al. 21.
