Proper expression of the O-antigen of lipopolysaccharide is essential for the virulence of Yersinia enterocolitica O:8 in experimental oral infection of rabbits.

Abstract excerpt

The O-antigen of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) is required for virulence in Yersinia enterocolitica serotype O:8. Here we evaluated the importance of controlling the O-antigen biosynthesis using an in vivo rabbit model of infection. Y. enterocolitica O:8 wild-type strain was compared to three mutants differing in the O-antigen phenotype: (i) the rough strain completely devoid of the O-antigen, (ii) the wzy strain that...
