  • Title: Structural studies of the O-chains of the lipopolysaccharides produced by strains of Actinobacillus (Haemophilus) pleuropneumoniae serotype 5.
    Author: Altman E, Griffith DW, Perry MB.
    Journal: Biochem Cell Biol; 1990 Nov; 68(11):1268-71. PubMed ID: 1703417.
    Abstract:
    The water-phase lipopolysaccharides isolated by phenol-water extraction from the cells of four strains of Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae serotype 5 (K17, L20, B78-3760, and 81-750) were shown on structural analysis to have O-chain components with the same basic polysaccharide structure of a linear unbranched homopolymer of 1,6-linked beta-D-galactopyranosyl residues, although the linear length of the O-chain varied among different strains. While those of strains B78-3760 and 81-750 were partially O-acetylated, the O-chains of strains K17 and L20 were unsubstituted.
