Comparison of loss of serum resistance by defined lipopolysaccharide mutants and an acapsular mutant of uropathogenic Escherichia coli O75:K5.

Infection and immunity - 1 Sept 1998

Burns S M, Hull S I

Abstract excerpt

In order to determine the importance of the O75 O antigen versus the K5 capsular antigen and the bimodal distribution of lipopolysaccharides (LPSs) in protection from complement-mediated lysis, mutants were made by insertion of a cat or an aphA gene in or in place of genes necessary for the synthesis of LPS and/or the K antigen of an O75(+) K5(+) uropathogenic Escherichia coli strain, GR-12. Mutations were made...
