[Genetic analysis of mutations affecting the synthesis of somatic O-antigen of Vibrio cholerae]. 1985

N I Smirnova, and T S Il'ina, and L F Livanova, and G B Smirnov

The mutations oagM and oagR affecting the synthesis of somatic O-antigen have been localized on the chromosome of Vibrio cholerae El Jor and classic biotypes by conjugational crosses between different donor and recipient strains. The mutations are localized in the vicinity of the arg marker in both classic and El Tor biotypes of Vibrio cholerae.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D009154	Mutation	Any detectable and heritable change in the genetic material that causes a change in the GENOTYPE and which is transmitted to daughter cells and to succeeding generations.	Mutations
D005819	Genetic Markers	A phenotypically recognizable genetic trait which can be used to identify a genetic locus, a linkage group, or a recombination event.

D019081	O Antigens	The lipopolysaccharide-protein somatic antigens, usually from gram-negative bacteria, important in the serological classification of enteric bacilli. The O-specific chains determine the specificity of the O antigens of a given serotype. O antigens are the immunodominant part of the lipopolysaccharide molecule in the intact bacterial cell.
