PolysacDB ID | 1501 |
Carbohydrate Name | O-polysaccharide (Drugpedia) |
Carbohydrate Class | Lipopolysaccharide |
Microbe | Acinetobacter baumannii strain 24 (NCBI Taxonomy) (Drugpedia) |
Basic Structure | Acinetobacter LPSs consist of a polysaccharide covalently linked to a lipid component, termed lipid A, which anchors the LPS in the outer membrane. This polysaccharide is divided into the core oligosaccharide (linked to lipid A) and the O-polysaccharide or O-antigen. This type of LPS is referred to as the smooth- or S-form phenotype; the O-antigens are characteristic for a given LPS and the parental bacterial strain |
BCSDB Structure | 5534 |
Proposed functions | Since all recently investigated LPSs from Acinetobacter strains have been shown to be of the smooth phenotype, a serotyping scheme for identification of members of this genus may also be possible |
Antigenic Nature used to produce antibodies | Heat killed bacteria |
Carrier Name | Nil |
Conjugation Method | Nil |
Antibodies | Mab S48-3-13 |
Antibody type and class | IgG3 |
Assay System | Dot blot and Enzyme Immunoassay |
Cross-reactivity | This antibody cross-reacted with 31 strains A. baumannii |
Proposed epitopes | N/A |
IEDB Epitope | N/A |
Proposed Utility | This antibody can be used for strain identification in A. baumanni species |
Curator ID | AA + AS |
Date of Curation | 05-08-2010 |
