Chemical and conformational studies of bacterial cell surface polysaccharide repeating units
Abstract Bacterial cell surface polysaccharides are primarily present as lipopolysaccharides or capsular polysaccharides. They are used by cells for both structure and function and have been shown to be a virulence factor of bacterial pathogens. Cell surface polysaccharides are widely utilised as an...
