Abstract excerpt
The rough lipopolysaccharide (LPS) of commonly used strains of Escherichia coli K-12 has two distinctly different band patterns when analyzed by high-resolution polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The LPS of ancestral strains such as W1485F- consists primarily of a single broad gel band. In contrast, the LPS of strains derived from strain Y10 such as AB1133 or C600 gives three sharp gel bands. Complementation...
