The O-specific polysaccharide isolated from Escherichia coli O128 lipopolysaccharide contains D-galactose, L-fucose, and 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-D-galactose in the molar ratios 2:1:2. The primary structure of the O-specific polysaccharide from E. coli was established by compositional analysis, methylation analysis, together with 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy including two-dimensional shift-correlated and one-dimensional NOE spectroscopy. The polysaccharide moiety was found to consist of a tetrasaccharide backbone containing D-galactose and 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-D-galactose, with L-fucose as a side chain in a branched pentasaccharide repeating unit having the following structure: [formula: see text]

D004926 Escherichia coli A species of gram-negative, facultatively anaerobic, rod-shaped bacteria (GRAM-NEGATIVE FACULTATIVELY ANAEROBIC RODS) commonly found in the lower part of the intestine of warm-blooded animals. It is usually nonpathogenic, but some strains are known to produce DIARRHEA and pyogenic infections. Pathogenic strains (virotypes) are classified by their specific pathogenic mechanisms such as toxins (ENTEROTOXIGENIC ESCHERICHIA COLI), etc. Alkalescens-Dispar Group,Bacillus coli,Bacterium coli,Bacterium coli commune,Diffusely Adherent Escherichia coli,E coli,EAggEC,Enteroaggregative Escherichia coli,Enterococcus coli,Diffusely Adherent E. coli,Enteroaggregative E. coli,Enteroinvasive E. coli,Enteroinvasive Escherichia coli
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.
