Molecular Characterization of Lipopolysaccharide Binding to Human α-1-Acid Glycoprotein

Table 1

The structures of the core oligosaccharide and -antigen polysaccharides of the LPS samples used in this study. The general structure of the Salmonella LPS is shown in the first row. The stages at which the biosynthetic enzyme defects disrupt biosynthesis resulting in the production of the truncated “rough” LPS chemotypes are indicated by the segmented arrows.
