Abstract
O-antigen U made up of mannosyl-rhamnosyl-galactosyl repeating units. The O-antigen chains may not be the primary acceptors of sugars from the nucleotide sugar precursors but these may be 1st transferred to an acceptor where the O-antigen repeating sequence is formed. Subsequent transfer from this acceptor results in formation of the O-antigen.This publication has 12 references indexed in Scilit:
