Abstract

A 2-kb region that complements the Tn5-derived lipopolysaccharide (LPS) rough mutant Rhizobium leguminosarum RU301 was sequenced. Two open reading frames (ORFs) were identified. The first ORF (lpcA) is homologous to a family of bacterial sugar transferases involved in LPS core tetrasaccharide biosynthesis. ORF2 (lpcB), in which Tn5 transposed, has no significant homology to any DNA in the GenBank-EMBL databases. Chemical characterization of LPS produced by strain RU301 demonstrated that the 3-deoxy-D-manno-2-octulosonic acid (Kdo) residue which normally attaches the core tetrasaccharide to the O chain was missing, suggesting that IpcB may encode a CMP-Kdo:LPS Kdo transferase.

摘要

对一个能互补源自Tn5的脂多糖(LPS)粗糙型突变体豆科根瘤菌RU301的2-kb区域进行了测序。鉴定出两个开放阅读框(ORF)。第一个ORF(lpcA)与参与LPS核心四糖生物合成的一类细菌糖基转移酶同源。ORF2(lpcB)是Tn5转座的位置,与GenBank-EMBL数据库中的任何DNA均无显著同源性。对菌株RU301产生的LPS进行化学表征表明,通常将核心四糖连接到O链上的3-脱氧-D-甘露糖-2-辛酮糖酸(Kdo)残基缺失,这表明IpcB可能编码一种CMP-Kdo:LPS Kdo转移酶。
