overexpression of WbdD decreases O-polysaccharide chain length. O-polysaccharide chain length is not reduced by overexpressing the heterologous plasmid encoded WbdD proteins. The WbdD proteins are therefore specific for a given serotype Escherichia coli

Escherichia coli O8 polymannan is synthesized in the cytoplasm, and an ABC transporter exports the nascent polymer across the inner membrane prior to completion of the lipopolysaccharide molecule. The polymannan O antigens has nonreducing terminal methyl groups. The 3-O-methyl group in serotype O8 is transferred from S-adenosylmethionine by the WbdDO8 enzyme, and this modification terminates polymerization.

General Information

General Information Comment Organism
malfunction construction of a chromosomal wbdDO9a::aacC1 mutation by allelic exchange. Membranes of the mutant are still able to synthesize O9a polymannan in vitro, although the chain length is increased relative to that made by the parent Escherichia coli
physiological function the WbdD proteins control the chain length of the Escherichia coli O9a polymannan by modifying the nonreducing end of nascent undecaprenol diphosphate-linked polymer. Overexpression of WbdD decreases O-polysaccharide chain length. WbdD activity coordinates polymannan chain termination with export across the inner membrane Escherichia coli
