PolysacDB ID | 2308 |
Carbohydrate Name | O-polysaccharide (Drugpedia) |
Carbohydrate Class | Lipopolysaccharide |
Microbe | Shigella flexneri serotype 2a strain 2457T (NCBI Taxonomy) (Drugpedia) |
Basic Structure | Chemically, the O-antigen is a polysaccharide chain of variable length, built up by repetitive sequences of tetra- to hexasaccharides. It consists of a basic tetrasaccharide repeating unit consisting of three rhamnoses and one N-acetylglucosamine was common to all S. flexneri strains (except serotype 17): -2)-α-L-Rhap-(1-->2)-α-L-Rhap-(1-->3)-α-L-Rhap-(1-->3)-β-D-GlcpNAc-(1--> |
BCSDB Structure | N/A |
Proposed functions | LPS plays an important virulence role based on its antiphagocytic and endotoxic properties |
Antigenic Nature used to produce antibodies | Whole cells |
Carrier Name | Nil |
Conjugation Method | Nil |
Antibodies | Mab HYSF2a1 |
Antibody type and class | IgG2b |
Assay System | ELISA and immunoblotting |
Cross-reactivity | HySF2a1 reacted only with 2a and 5a LPSs |
Proposed epitopes | This Mab is likely recognizing an epitope influenced by the presence of a single α-D-glycosyl residue on one of the rhamnose residues |
IEDB Epitope | N/A |
Proposed Utility | This Mab may have implications for designing a Shigella vaccine that will be protective against related serotypes. This Mab may also be used to study the ultrastructural surface distribution of LPSs on the surface of the bacteria |
