Campylobacter jejuni produces both lipooligosaccharide (LOS) and a higher-molecular-weight polysaccharide that is believed to form a capsule. The role of these surface polysaccharides in C jejuni-mediated enteric disease is unclear; however, epitopes...

Cloning, mutation and distribution of a putative lipopolysaccharide biosynthesis locus in Campylobacter jejuni (1999)
Journal Article

A region encoding ORFs with homology to known lipopolysaccharide (LPS) biosynthesis genes was isolated from two strains of Campylobacter jejuni. One of the strains produces LPS, but the second strain is reported to produce only lipooligosaccharide (L...
