Structural and Biochemical Analysis of a Single Amino-Acid Mutant of WzzB(SF) That Alters Lipopolysaccharide O-Antigen Chain Length in Shigella flexneri

Lipopolysaccharide (LPS), a surface polymer of Gram-negative bacteria, helps bacteria survive in different environments and acts as a virulence determinant of host infection. The O-antigen (Oag) component of LPS exhibits a modal chain-length distribution that is controlled by polysaccharide co-polym...
