Description générale

This product is extracted from E. coli serotype O111:B4 and purified by chromatography. The source strain is from a private collection. The lipid A moiety has been partially delipidated by alkaline hydrolysis. Removal of the fatty acid portions of lipid A results in a detoxified LPS with an endotoxin level about 10,000 times lower than that of the parent LPS.

Application

Les lipopolysaccharides (LPS) sont des éléments constitutifs caractéristiques de la paroi cellulaire des bactéries à Gram négatif. Les LPS et leur fraction lipidique (lipide A) stimulent les cellules du système immunitaire inné par l'intermédiaire du récepteur TLR4 (Toll-Like Receptor 4), qui appartient à la famille des récepteurs de type Toll et qui reconnaît la signature moléculaire des principaux agents pathogènes (PAMP).

Actions biochimiques/physiologiques

Lipopolysaccharides (LPS) are localized in the outer layer of the membrane and are, in noncapsulated strains, exposed on the cell surface. They contribute to the integrity of the outer membrane, and protect the cell against the action of bile salts and lipophilic antibiotics.

Notes préparatoires

Chromatographically purified; delipidized by alkaline hydrolysis
The product is soluble in water (5 mg/ml) or cell culture medium (1 mg/ml) yielding a hazy, faint yellow solution. A more concentrated, though still hazy, solution (20 mg/ml) has been achieved in aqueous saline after vortexing and warming to 70-80 oC. Lipopolysaccharides are molecules that form micelles in every solvent. Hazy solutions are observed in water and phosphate buffered saline. Organic solvents do not give clearer solutions. Methanol yields a turbid suspension with floaters, while water yields a homogeneously hazy solution.
