Salmonella Typhimurium derived OMV nanoparticle displaying mixed heterologous O-antigens confers immunogenicity and protection against STEC infections in mice [PDF]
Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) is one of the major pathogens responsible for severe foodborne infections, and the common serotypes include E. coli O157, O26, O45, O103, O111, O121, and O145.

Outer membrane protein size and LPS O-antigen define protective antibody targeting to the Salmonella surface [PDF]
The O-antigen of LPS is known to limit the binding of antibody to bacterial surface antigens. Here the AUs show that the chemical and physical structure of the O-antigen are central factors in limiting the exposure of surface antigens to antibodies ...

Systems Biology and Pangenome of Salmonella O-Antigens. [PDF]
O-antigens are glycopolymers in lipopolysaccharides expressed on the cell surface of Gram-negative bacteria. Variability in the O-antigen structure constitutes the basis for the establishment of the serotyping schema. We pursued a two-pronged approach to

Tumor-associated Tn and STn antigens: from molecular mechanism to precision diagnosis and treatment [PDF]
BackgroundAbnormal protein glycosylation is a key feature of tumors. Among the modifications, Tn antigen (GalNAcα1-Ser/Thr) and its sialylated derivative, STn antigen (Neu5Acα2-6GalNAcα1-O-Ser/Thr), are prominent tumor-associated carbohydrate antigens ...

Identification of Salmonella O antigens by coagglutination [PDF]
This study concerns the preparation of reagents for identifying the somatic O antigens of Salmonella enteritidis. Coagglutination reagents (COAGs) with antibody fixed to killed and stabilized protein A-bearing staphylococci were prepared with antisera which were used for identifying the somatic O antigens of S.

Shigella Flexneri Serotypes: O-antigen Structure, Serotype Conversion, and Serotyping Methods
Shigella flexneri is the most common cause of shigellosis in developing countries. Up to now, 23 serotypes of S. flexneri have been reported. Different serotypes result from the addition of acetyl, glucosyl, or phosphatidylethanolamine groups on the O ...
