... disease; DPBSG, Dulbecco’s phosphate-bufferedsaline containing 0.05% gelatin; EU, endotoxin units; Kdo, 3-deoxy-D-manno-2-octulosonic acid; kds, 3-deoxy-D-manno-2-octulosonic acidtransferase; LOS, ... residues, terminal- and 4-linkedgalactosyl residues, and a terminal-linked N-acetylglu-cosaminosyl residue. These linkage results were consis-tent with the structure of the LOS reported forserotype ... from the mutant O35Elgt3 con-sisted exclusively of Glc and Kdo. The glycosyl linkageanalysis by GC-MS showed that the OSs from the wild-type strain consisted of terminal-, 2-, 4-, and3,4,6-linked...
