Antibodies to lipopolysaccharide

Journal of Immunological Methods, 1995
Lipopolysaccharides (LPS) are indispensable structural components of the Gram-negative bacterial outer membrane and are major determinants of virulence in pathogenic species. In the infected host LPS is better known as endotoxin where it acts as a potent stimulator of the inflammatory response.

Biodegradation of microbial lipopolysaccharides [PDF]

Experientia, 1973
La biodegradation parBacillus macerans des lipopolysaccharides (LPS), extraites deSalmonella typhimurium, Salmonella minnesota et Escherichia coli fut etudiee dans un milieu liquide mineral, contenant uniquement ces LPS comme sources de carbone. II fut observe qu'apres avoir effectue une hydrolyse des LPS le microorganisme se developpe sur les acides ...

Lipopolysaccharide of Coxiella burnetii

2012
A lipopolysaccharide (LPS) is considered to be one of the major determinants of virulence expression and infection of virulent Coxiella burnetii. The LPSs from virulent phase I (LPS I) and from avirulent phase II (LPS II) bacteria were investigated for their chemical composition, structure and biological properties.

Characterization of Legionella Lipopolysaccharide

2012
The lipopolysaccharide(LPS) of Legionella spp. is an immuno-dominant antigen and the basis for Legionella pneumophila serogroup classification. The LPS shows a peculiar structure composed of a very hydrophobic lipid A acylated by long chain fatty acids and an O-antigen-specific chain consisting of homopolymeric legionaminic acid.

421 THE LIPOPOLYSACCHARIDE BINDING PROTEIN RESPONSE TO INTRATRACHEAL LIPOPOLYSACCHARIDE [PDF]

Journal of Investigative Medicine, 2005
Lipopolysaccharide binding protein (LBP) is an acute-phase glycoprotein that facilitates lipopolysaccharide (LPS) activation of immune cells through interactions with CD14 and toll-like receptor 4. In response to conditions such as sepsis, trauma, and ARDS, LBP concentrations increase in both plasma and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF).

Structure and function of lipopolysaccharides

Microbes and Infection, 2002
The lipopolysaccharides of Gram-negative bacteria have a profound effect on the mammalian immune system and are of great significance in the pathophysiology of many disease processes. Consideration is given in this review to the relationship between structure and function of these lipopolysaccharides.

Supported Lipopolysaccharide Bilayers

Langmuir, 2012
In this report, the formation of supported lipopolysaccharide bilayers (LPS-SLBs) is studied with extracted native and glycoengineered LPS from Escherichia coli ( E. coli ) and Salmonella enterica sv typhimurium ( S. typhimurium ) to assemble a platform that allows measurement of LPS membrane structure and the detection of membrane tethered ...

Purification and Characterization of Lipopolysaccharides

2010
Lipopolysaccharides are the major components on the surface of most Gram-negative bacteria, and recognized by immune cells as a pathogen-associated molecule. They can cause severe diseases like sepsis and therefore known as endotoxins. Lipopolysaccharide consists of lipid A, core oligosaccharide and O-antigen repeats.

Removal of lipopolysaccharides from protein–lipopolysaccharide complexes by nonflammable solvents

Journal of Chromatography B, 2005
During the recovery of recombinant proteins from gram negative bacteria, many of the methods used to extract proteins from cells release lipopolysaccharides (LPS, endotoxin) along with the protein of interest. In many instances, LPS will co-purify with the target protein due to specific or non-specific protein-LPS interactions. We have investigated the
