This review summarizes the state of knowledge on the composition and structure of the
lipopolysaccharides (LPS) from three species of Yersinia known to produce disease in …

Data on the structure and temperature-dependent variations of the lipopolysaccharide (LPS)
of Yersinia pestis are summarized and compared with data of other enteric bacteria …

Yersinia pestis spread throughout the Americas in the early 20th century, and it occurs
predominantly as a single clone within this part of the world. However, within Eurasia and …

Following a report of variations in the lipopolysaccharide (LPS) structure of Yersinia pestis at
mammalian (37° C) and flea (25° C) temperatures, a number of changes to the LPS structure …

It has recently been shown that the NlpD lipoprotein is essential to Yersinia pestis virulence
and that subcutaneous administration of the nlpD mutant could protect mice against bubonic …

The genetic analysis of Y. pestis virulence factors accomplished in the 358 strain isogenic
system allowed us to determine a minimal set of known factors providing pathogenicity. The …

The lipopolysaccharide (LPS) of strains representing various serotypes of Yersinia
