The New Structure of Core Oligosaccharide Presented by Proteus penneri 40A and 41 Lipopolysaccharides
نویسندگان
چکیده
The new type of core oligosaccharide in Proteus penneri 40A and 41 lipopolysaccharides has been investigated by ¹H and 13C NMR spectroscopy, electrospray ionization mass spectrometry and chemical methods. Core oligosaccharides of both strains were chosen for structural analysis based on the reactivity of LPSs with serum against P. penneri 40A core oligosaccharide-diphtheria toxoid conjugate. Structural analyses revealed that P. penneri 40A and 41 LPSs possess an identical core oligosaccharide.

Characterization of epitope specificity of Proteus penneri 7 lipopolysaccharide core region.
To extend the knowledge on the fragments of Proteus penneri lipopolysaccharide core regions, which determine the cross-reactions with specific antibodies, serological studies were performed by use of P. penneri 7 core-specific antiserum and Proteus sp. lipopolysaccharides. Different reactivity of the tested antiserum with three groups of antigens suggested differences in their core regions' epi...
متن کاملStructure of the O-specific polysaccharide of Proteus penneri strain 41 from a new proposed serogroup O62.
O-specific polysaccharide of Proteus penneri strain 41 was studied using 1H- and 13C-NMR spectroscopy, including two-dimensional COSY, heteronuclear 13C,1H-correlation (HETCOR) and one-dimensional NOE spectroscopy, and the following structure of a non-stoichiometrically O-acetylated hexasaccharide repeating unit was established:[structure: see text] where RGlcNAc is 2-acetamido-4-O-[(S)-1-carbo...
متن کاملThe amide of galacturonic acid with lysine as an immunodominant component of the lipopolysaccharide core region from Proteus penneri 42 strain.
Most Proteus lipopolysaccharides (LPSs) contain uronic acids or their amides with different amino acids, which together with other negatively charged components account for the acidic character of such LPS molecules. Previous studies have shown the significance of an amide of galacturonic acid with lysine [D-GalA(L-Lys)] for serological specificity of O-antigens from few P. mirabilis strains. I...
متن کاملCharacterization and serological classification of a collection of Proteus penneri clinical strains.
INTRODUCTION Bacteria of the genus Proteus, which are a common cause of urinary tract infections, are divided into four species: P. mirabilis, P. vulgaris, P. penneri, and P. hauseri, and three unnamed genomospecies, Proteus 4, 5, and 6 (single-strain species P. myxofaciens was isolated from the gypsy moth). Establishing the serological classification of these species would aid in completing th...
متن کاملSerological classification and epitope specificity of Proteus penneri S29 lipopolysaccharide.
INTRODUCTION Gram-negative bacteria of genus Proteus are common human intestinal and urinary tract pathogens. In the genus Proteus there are four clinically important named species: P. mirabilis, P. vulgaris, P. penneri, and P. hauseri, and three unnamed Proteus genomospecies: 4, 5, and 6. The clinical significance of P. penneri, described in 1982 as a new species, is poorly documented. The aim...
