Abstract excerpt
The structures of lipopolysaccharides (LPSs) of lic1 and lic1/lic2 mutants from Haemophilus influenzae type b strain Eagan (RM153) were investigated using methylation analysis, electrospray ionization - mass spectrometry, and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy on O-deacylated, O- and N-deacylated core oligosaccharide (OS); and deacylated, dephosphorylated, and terminally reduced samples. The backbone OS...
