ΔOD595 for triplicate experiments is shown: ΔnanT (A) and ΔyjhB (B). ΔOD595 for triplicate experiments is shown: BW25113 (B), ΔyjhC (C), and complemented yjhC (D). Deletion of yjhC resulted in loss of growth on...
In some experiments the bacterial surface was desialylated with 13· In the earlier set of experiments that utilized neuraminidase, we noted that, following neuraminidase treatment, there were typically fewer cells in the dish, indicating...
Whole cell lysate (20 μl) was combined with 80 μl of 0.05 N H2SO4 (hydrolysis reagent) and incubated at 80°C for 60 min. Samples were briefly centrifuged at 14,000 revolution/min (16,000 g), after which...
The reaction was followed by acquiring 1D NMR experiments at 15-min intervals over 24 h. All 1D NMR experiments were performed using a Bruker Advance I 500-MHz spectrometer with a 5-mm PATXI 1H/D-13C/15N Z-GRD...
We stained cell lines with lectins that have been used to recognize the following three different epitopes: (i) WGA recognizes all sialic acids, (ii) MAA recognizes α2,3 sialic acid, and (iii) SNA recognizes α2,6...
