SDS-PAGE and Western blot of LPS from wild-type strains 51579 (serotype 6) and Sf301 (serotype 2a), their oacC and oacB deletion mutants, and complementation transformants by plasmids pSQZ4 and pSQZ5. A. Sliver-staining detection of LPS profiles on 15% polyacrylamide gels. B. The LPS separated by SDS-PAGE were transferred onto a PVDF membrane and hybridized with anti-O-factor 9 serum. An anti-rabbit antibody labeled with fluorescent IRDye 800 (Rockland) was used as the secondary antibody. Fluorescence was detected using Odyssey Infrared Imaging System (LI-COR).
