| PolysacDB ID | 1138 |
| Carbohydrate Name | O-polysaccharide (Drugpedia) |
| Carbohydrate Class | Lipopolysaccharide |
| Microbe | Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae serotype 1 (NCBI Taxonomy) (Drugpedia) |
| Basic Structure | The O-polsaccharide structure is as follows : --6)-α-D-Glcp-(1-->2)-α-L-Rhap-(l-->2)-α-L-Rhap-(1--. which is linked to 1-D-GlcpNAc chains on its rhamnopyranosyl residue via 1-->3 linkage. |
| BCSDB Structure | N/A |
| Proposed functions | LPS is an important virulence factor. It molecule plays an important role in adherence of the bacterium to porcine respiratory tract cells and mucus |
| Antigenic Nature used to produce antibodies | Whole cells |
| Carrier Name | Nil |
| Conjugation Method | Nil |
| Antibodies | LMab-5 |
| Antibody type and class | IgM |
| Assay System | ELISA inhibition tests |
| Cross-reactivity | IMAb-5 reacted with serotype 1, 9 and 11 strains at the same degree and its epitope was found to be located on O-polysaccharide of serotype 1, 9 or 11 lipopolysaccharide (LPS) |
| Proposed epitopes | N/A |
| IEDB Epitope | N/A |
| Proposed Utility | This Mab can be useful for serotyping studies |
