Abstract excerpt

The core lipopolysaccharide (LPS) of Aeromonas hydrophila AH-3 and Aeromonas salmonicida A450 is characterized by the presence of the pentasaccharide alpha-d-GlcN-(1-->7)-l-alpha-d-Hep-(1-->2)-l-alpha-d-Hep-(1-->3)-l-alpha-d-Hep-(1-->5)-alpha-Kdo. Previously it has been suggested that the WahA protein is involved in the incorporation of GlcN residue to outer core LPS. The WahA protein contains two domains: a...
