Enhanced Biofilm Formation by Escherichia coli LPS Mutants Defective in Hep Biosynthesis

Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) is the major component of the surface of Gram-negative bacteria and its polysaccharide portion is situated at the outermost region. We investigated the relationship between the polysaccharide portion of LPS and biofilm formation using a series of Escherichia coli mutants def...
