Abstract

The O-specific polysaccharides (OPSs) called O-antigens were obtained by mild acid degradation of the lipopolysaccharides of Escherichia albertii serotypes O3, O4, O6, and O7 and studied by sugar analysis along with 1D and 2D (1)H and (13)C NMR spectroscopy. The following structure was established for the OPS of E. albertii O4, which, to our knowledge, is unique among known bacterial polysaccharide structures: -->2)-alpha-l-Rhap-(1 --> 2)-alpha-l-Fucp-(1 --> 2)-beta-d-Galp-(1 --> 3)-alpha-d-GalpNAc-(1 --> 3)-beta-d-GlcpNAc-(1--> The OPS structure of the strain of E. albertii O7 studied was identical to that of strain LMG 20973 (= Albert 10457), whose structure has been reported earlier (R. Eserstam et al. Eur. J. Biochem. 269 (2002) 3289-3295). E. albertii O3 and O6 shared the OPS structures with Escherichia coli O181 and O3, respectively, except for the lack of O-acetylation in E. albertii O3, which is present in E. coli O181. The gene clusters driving the O-antigen biosynthesis of the E. albertii strains were sequenced, the genes were annotated by comparison with sequences in the available databases, and the predicted functions of the encoded proteins were found to be consistent with the OPS structures established. In accordance with the relatedness of the OPS structures, the O-antigen gene clusters of E. albertii O3 and O6 contain the same genes and have the same organization as those of E. coli O181 and O3, the entire gene clusters being 83% and 98% identical, respectively.
