[edit] Carbohydrate Name

Lipopolysaccharide

[edit] Carbohydrate Class

Lipopolysaccharide

[edit] Source Microbe

Klebsiella pneumoniae strain R20/O1

[edit] Basic Structure

N/A

[edit] Proposed functions

It is an important virulence factor

[edit] Antigenic Nature used to produce antibodies

heat-killed Klebsiella pneumoniae strain R20/O1

[edit] Carrier Name

nil

[edit] Conjugation Method

nil

[edit] Antibodies

Un-named Mab

[edit] Antibody type and class

N/A

[edit] Assay System

ELISA and immunoblotting

[edit] Cross-reactivity

The antibody was able to bind to LPS of clinical isolates of K. pneumoniae, K. oxytoca, K. terrigena and K. planticola but did not bind to LPS of other Gram-negative genera

[edit] Proposed epitopes

This Mab recognized the LPS core

[edit] Proposed Utility

This antibody bound only to those LPS molecules which did not carry an O-antigen and thus this antibody is different from those already published
