[edit] Carbohydrate Name

Lipopolysaccharide

[edit] Carbohydrate Class

Lipopolysaccharide

[edit] Source Microbe

Xanthomonas hyacinthi S148

[edit] Basic Structure

The Xanthomonas LPS showed a predominance of mannose (Man), glucose (Glc), galacturonic acid (GalA), and N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc) residues


[edit] Proposed functions

N/A

[edit] Antigenic Nature used to produce antibodies

crude cell wall preparation and purified fimbriae

[edit] Carrier Name

nil

[edit] Conjugation Method

nil

[edit] Antibodies

Mab 1B10

[edit] Antibody type and class

IgG1

[edit] Assay System

immunoblotting, immunofluorescence, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), and immunoelectron microscopy

[edit] Cross-reactivity

This Mab cross-reacted with all X. hyacinthi strains. No cross-reaction was found with 27 other Xanthomonas pathovars tested or with 14 other bacterial species from other genera, such as Erwinia and Pseudomonas

[edit] Proposed epitopes

The O antigen was found to consist of rhamnose and fucose in a 2:1 molar ratio. This Mab recognized both R-LPS and S-LPS

[edit] Proposed Utility

This Mab could be useful for structural studies, for detection purposes in commercial and agricultural settings, and for serological typing purposes
