Using fluorescently labeled wheat germ agglutinin to track lipopolysaccharide transport to the outer membrane in Escherichia coli by Laurent Dubois, Andrea Vettiger, Jackson A. Buss, Thomas G. Bernhardt

“…Here, we report an investigation into the binding target of fluorescently labeled wheat germ agglutinin (FL-WGA) on E. coli cells that led to the development of a method for visualizing LPS transport. We show that instead of PG or enterobacterial common antigen for which FL-WGA labeling has been used to detect in the past, this probe recognizes LPS modified with a terminal N-acetylglucosamine formed by the defective O-antigen synthesis pathway of laboratory strains of E. coli. …”
