Carbohydrate NameY O-polysaccharide   (Drugpedia)
Carbohydrate ClassLipopolysaccharide
Microbe NameShigella flexneri   (NCBI Taxonomy)   (Drugpedia)
Basic StructureThe O-LPS consists of a tetrasaccharide repeating unit α-L-Rhap-(1-->2)-α-L-Rhap(1-->3)- . This tetrasaccharide is polymerized and joined by β-1,2 linkages between N-acetyl-D-glucosamine and L-rhamnosyl to form the O-polysaccharide chain
