Abstract excerpt
We have cloned and sequenced the rfaL and rfaK genes for lipopolysaccharide synthesis in Salmonella typhimurium LT2 on a 4.28-kb HindIII fragment from the previously described R' factor pKZ3 (S. K. Kadam, A. Rehemtulla, and K. E. Sanderson, J. Bacteriol. 161:277-284, 1985). rfaL is thought to encode a component of the O-antigen ligase, and rfaK is believed to encode the N-acetylglucosamine transferase. The genes...
