Abstract excerpt
The relationship between formation of the Mg2(+)-induced hexagonal lattice structure by R-form lipopolysaccharides (LPS) and chemical structure of their R-cores was investigated using different kinds of R-form LPS from a series of mutants of Salmonella minnesota or S. typhimurium. The optimal experimental condition for formation of the hexagonal lattice structure was to suspend LPS preparations, from which...
