Lipid A structural diversity among members of the genus Leptospira

Lipid A structural diversity among members of the genus Leptospira

Lipid A is the hydrophobic component of bacterial lipopolysaccharide and an activator of the host immune system. Bacteria modify their lipid A structure to adapt to the surrounding environment and, in some cases, to evade recognition by host immune cells. In this study, lipid A structural diversity...
