Interaction of E. coli cells, containing C. jejuni glycosylation gene cluster, with SBA lectin. (A) Confocal microscopy of E. coli XL2/pPGL1 after treatment with fluorescently labelled SBA. No fluorescence was observed for E. coli XL2 control (data are not shown). (B) Attachment of E. coli XL2/pPGL1 to immobilized SBA lectin (1) is inhibited by GalNAc at 5 mM (2). No binding of the recipient strain E. coli XL2 was detected (3).
