Many extracellular proteins produced by Erwinia chrysanthemi require the out gene products for transport across the outer membrane. In a previous report (S. Y. He, M. Lindeberg, A. K. Chatterjee, and A. Collmer, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 88:1079-1083, 1991) cosmid pCPP2006, sufficient for secretion of Erwinia chrysanthemi extracellular proteins by Escherichia coli, was partially sequenced, rev...

The lipopolysaccharide (LPS) from Erwinia carotovora, strain IFO 14082 has been isolated and found to contain 0glucose, L-glycero-o-manno-heptose, 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-o-glucose and 3-deoxy-o-manno-octulosonic acid. The main fatty acid components of lipid-A of the LPS are CI2:0, 3-0H-CI2:0, CI4:0, 3-0H-CI4:0 and CI6:0. The O-specific side chain (PS), obtained from the LPS, shows the presence of ...
