Complexity of lipopolysaccharide modifications in Salmonella enterica: Its effects on endotoxin activity, membrane permeability, and resistance to antimicrobial peptides

2012-03-01

Abstract excerpt

Pathogenic bacteria must adapt to host tissues to establish a persistent infection and cause disease. Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium remodels its lipopolysaccharide, including the lipid A portion, to adapt to its environment, including host tissues. This remodeling is beneficial for Salmonella because it increases resistance to antimicrobial peptides, produces a robust permeation barrier in the outer memb...
