Relationship of the structure of bacterial lipopolysaccharides to its function in mitogenesis and adjuvanticity.
The ability of bacterial lipopolysaccharides to induce lymphocyte mitogenesis and to act as an adjuvant of antibody formation was attributable to the lipid-A region of the molecule. Measured by induction of DNA synthesis, lipid A was mitogenic for bone marrow-derived lymphocytes obtained from spleens of congenitally athymic mice but not for thymocytes obtained from thymuses of normal mice. Adju...

1. Structure and Occurrence The envelope of Gram-negative bacteria, including those of human pathogens such as Escherichia coli and Salmonella enterica, is composed of two distinct lipid membranes: an inner membrane, consisting of glycerophospholipids, and a highly distinctive outer membrane. The latter is an asymmetric bilayer, the outer leaflet of which in most species consists predominantly ...

متن کاملStructure, function and evolution of bacterial ferredoxins.
During the past few years, the field of ironsulfur proteins has not ceased expanding. This evolution is due to the development of sophisticated methods such as electron paramagnetic resonance, M~Sssbauer or X-ray crystallography and to a fruitful interdisciplinary collaboration between biochemists, chemists and physicists. These advances have brought to light how widespread the non-heme iron pr...
