Abstract excerpt
The waa locus on the chromosome of Salmonella enterica encodes enzymes involved in the assembly of the core oligosaccharide region of the lipopolysaccharide (LPS) molecule. To date, there are two known core structures in Salmonella, represented by serovars Typhimurium (subspecies I) and Arizonae (subspecies IIIA). The waa locus for serovar Typhimurium has been characterized. Here, the corresponding locus from...
