Abstract:
Mutants of C were selected for resistance towards a set of cell wall LPS core specific bacteriophages, including øX174. Increasingly deficient LPS's from wt and mutant C were tested for inactivation of øX174, and the core oligosaccharides were subjected to structural analysis by methylation/g.l.c./m.s. Loss of the terminal galactose in the following basic structure of the C wt core was found to lead to adsorption resistance towards øX174:
