Abstract: | This review covers data on composition and structure of lipid A, core, and O-polysaccharide of the known lipopolysaccharides
from Gram-negative bacteria. The relationship between the structure and biological activity of lipid A is discussed. The data
on roles of core and O-polysaccharide in biological activities of lipopolysaccharides are presented. The structural homology
of some oligosaccharide sequences of lipopolysaccharides to gangliosides of human cell membranes is considered. |
