Determination of glycosyltransferase specificities for the Escherichia coli O111 O antigen by a generic approach.

Gordon Stevenson¹, Manuela Dieckelmann, Peter R Reeves.

Abstract

We describe a bacterial strain developed to facilitate the determination of glycosyltransferase (GT) specificities for O antigens of known structure and gene cluster sequence. For proof of principle for the approach, the strain was used to determine the specificity of the Escherichia coli O111 O-antigen GT genes.
