| PolysacDB ID | 1190 |
| Carbohydrate Name | Lipopolysaccharide (Drugpedia) |
| Carbohydrate Class | Lipopolysaccharide |
| Microbe | Yersinia enterocolitica 0:9 (NCBI Taxonomy) (Drugpedia) |
| Basic Structure | The O-antigen part consists of the following residues : -2)-α-D-Rhap4NFo-(1-
|
| BCSDB Structure | N/A |
| Proposed functions | N/A |
| Antigenic Nature used to produce antibodies | Killed whole cells |
| Carrier Name | Nil |
| Conjugation Method | Nil |
| Antibodies | Ys.T9-6 |
| Antibody type and class | IgG3 |
| Assay System | Whole cell agglutination, immunodiffusion, immunoblotting and ELISA |
| Cross-reactivity | This Mab was specific to Y. enterocolitica and did not cross-react with Brucella abortus LPS |
| Proposed epitopes | The epitope was proposed to be partially directed to the core that gave rise to its specificity to Y. enterocolitica. The study also indicates that the portion of the O-antigen recognized is most probably an oligosaccharide portion which encompasses elements of both the O-chain and the core |
| IEDB Epitope | N/A |
| Proposed Utility | This Mab can be used to study the cell wall polysaccharide antigens of other Y. enterocolitica strains and are being evaluated for specific serological identification of B. abortus. |
