Popis: | The lipopolysaccharide receptors for the mutator bacteriophages Mu, MuhP1, and D108 were investigated with lipopolysaccharide mutants of Salmonella typhimurium LT2. Mu adsorbed only to mutants lacking the terminal O antigen but retaining the main chain sugars of the core; the side chain N-acetylglucosamine was not required. MuhP1 and D108 adsorbed partially to cells with the same receptors but adsorbed well only to cells with shorter lipopolysaccharides of the Rc and Rd1 chemotypes. |
