| PolysacDB ID | 2296 |
| Carbohydrate Name | Core oligosaccharide (Drugpedia) |
| Carbohydrate Class | Lipopolysaccharide |
| Microbe | Shigella spp. (NCBI Taxonomy) (Drugpedia) |
| Basic Structure | LPS is a complex macromolecule composed of the biologically active lipid A moiety, covalently attached core oligosaccharide, and distally linked polysaccharide O-side chain. The O-antigen consists of the following residues : -3)-β-D-Quip4NAc-(1-->2)-α-D-Manp [branched to α-L-Rhap-(1-->3)] -(1-->4)-β-D-Galp-(1-->3)-α-D-GlcpNAc-(1- |
| BCSDB Structure | N/A |
| Proposed functions | LPS plays an important virulence role based on its antiphagocytic and endotoxic properties |
