A Bacteriophage-Acquired O-Antigen Polymerase (Wzy(β)) from P. aeruginosa Serotype O16 Performs a Varied Mechanism Compared to Its Cognate Wzy(α)

Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a Gram-negative bacterium that produces highly varied lipopolysaccharide (LPS) structures. The O antigen (O-Ag) in the LPS is synthesized through the Wzx/Wzy-dependent pathway where lipid-linked O-Ag repeats are polymerized by Wzy. Horizontal-gene transfer has been associat...
