| PolysacDB ID | 2552 |
| Carbohydrate Name | Lipopolysaccharide (Drugpedia) |
| Carbohydrate Class | Lipopolysaccharide |
| Microbe | Vibrio cholerae 01 34 Ogawa (NCBI Taxonomy) (Drugpedia) |
| Basic Structure | It is a linear unbranched homopolymer of 1,6-linked-D-galactopyranosyl residues. |
| BCSDB Structure | N/A |
| Proposed functions | V. cholerae lipopolysaccharide (LPS), a critical component of the outer membrane that is required for virulence, is a known target for immune responses following infection or immunization. Antibodies specific for V. cholerae LPS are correlated with protection against cholera |
| Antigenic Nature used to produce antibodies | Purified LPS |
| Carrier Name | Nil |
| Conjugation Method | Nil |
| Antibodies | Mab H8 |
| Antibody type and class | IgG3 |
| Assay System | Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay inhibition experiments |
| Cross-reactivity | This Mab was specific to Ogawa 34 LPS only |
| Proposed epitopes | This Mab was specific to B antigen |
| IEDB Epitope | N/A |
| Proposed Utility | This Mab had a good agglutinating capacity when tested against V. cholerae 0:1 strains |
