Structural Studies of Shigella flexneri O-Antigens [PDF]
European Journal of Biochemistry, 1978 The structures of the O-antigens of all known serotypes and subserotypes of Shigella flexneri have been reinvestigated. The results support the assumption that these antigens are composed of a basic tetrasaccharide repeating unit (1), to which alpha-D-glucopyranosyl and/or O-acetyl groups are attached at different positions. Leads to 3)-beta-D-GlcNAcp-(

Escherichia coli K12 regains its O antigen [PDF]
Microbiology, 1994 Extant Escherichia coli K12 strains are phenotypically rough, their lipopolysaccharide having a complete core structure, but no O antigen. We used DNA hybridization and DNA sequencing to show that the rough phenotype of this strain is due to the presence of one of two independent mutations in the rfb gene cluster.
