Whole genome sequences of two <i>Acinetobacter baumannii</i> clinical isolates, 48-1789 and MAR24, revealed that they carry the KL106 and KL112 capsular polysaccharide (CPS) biosynthesis gene clusters, respectively, at the chromosomal K locus. The KL106 and KL112 gene clusters are relate...

description Whole genome sequences of two <i>Acinetobacter baumannii</i> clinical isolates, 48-1789 and MAR24, revealed that they carry the KL106 and KL112 capsular polysaccharide (CPS) biosynthesis gene clusters, respectively, at the chromosomal K locus. The KL106 and KL112 gene clusters are related to the previously described KL11 and KL83 gene clusters, sharing genes for the synthesis of <span style="font-variant: small-caps;">l</span>-rhamnose (<span style="font-variant: small-caps;">l</span>-Rha<i>p</i>) and 6-deoxy-<span style="font-variant: small-caps;">l</span>-talose (<span style="font-variant: small-caps;">l</span>-6dTal<i>p</i>). CPS material isolated from 48-1789 and MAR24 was studied by sugar analysis and Smith degradation along with one- and two-dimensional 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy. The structures of K106 and K112 oligosaccharide repeats (K units) <span style="font-variant: small-caps;">l</span>-6dTal<i>p</i>-(1→3)-D-Glc<i>p</i>NAc tetrasaccharide fragment share the responsible genes in the respective gene clusters. The K106 and K83 CPSs also have the same linkage between K units. The KL112 cluster includes an additional glycosyltransferase gene, Gtr183, and the K112 unit includes α <span style="font-variant: small-caps;">l</span>-Rha<i>p</i> side chain that is not found in the K106 structure. K112 further differs in the linkage between K units formed by the Wzy polymerase, and a different <i>wzy</i> gene is found in KL112. However, though both KL106 and KL112 share the <i>atr8</i> acetyltransferase gene with KL83, only K83 is acetylated.
