Beyond serology: saccharide profiling enables identification of antigenically similar Leptospira and prompts re-evaluation of bacterial lipopolysaccharide evolution by Aleksandra J. Lewicka, Jan J. Lyczakowski, Laura Pardyak, Klaudia Dubniewicz, Dariusz Latowski, Zbigniew Arent

“…Through extensive phylogenetic analysis, we reveal which specific glycosyltransferases of the LPS biosynthesis rfb locus likely drove the emergence of these similarities and identify a single glycosyltransferase that might have contributed to the formation of saccharide differences in the LPS structure. Our findings have implications for future work on the evolution of bacterial polysaccharide synthesis and highlight the importance of preventing horizontal gene transfer between pathogenic bacteria.…”
