Abstract excerpt
Enteropathogenic Escherichia coli strains of diffused adherent (DA) and localised adherent (LA) phenotypes were tested for their ability to bind to glycolipids. DA strains did not bind to the glycolipids tested, while LA strains bound to asialo GM1, asialo GM2, globoside and lacto-N-neotetraose in decreasing order of avidity. The minimum common sequence among the four glycolipids could be delineated as GalNac...
