  O-polysaccharides of E. coli O28ab, O37, and O100 were found to contain glycerol 1-phosphate and the following structures of their oligosaccharide repeats were established by sugar analysis, Smith degradation (for O28ab), 1D and 2D (1)H, (13)C, and (13)P NMR spectroscopy: [Formula: see text]. Functions of putative glycosyltransferases genes in the O-antigen gene clusters of the strains studied were tentatively assigned based on similarities to genes of other E. coli O-serogroups available from GenBank and taking into account the O-polysaccharide structures established.

  Escherichia coli includes clonal groups of both commensal and pathogenic strains, with some of the latter causing serious infectious diseases. O antigen variation is current standard in defining strains for taxonomy and epidemiology, providing the basis for many serotyping schemes for Gram-negative bacteria. This review covers the diversity in E. coli O antigen structures and gene clusters, and the genetic basis for the structural diversity. Of the 187 formally defined O antigens, six (O31, O47, O67, O72, O94 and O122) have since been removed and four (O14, O34, O89 and O144) strains do not produce any O antigen. Therefore, structures are presented for 176 of the 181 E. coli O antigens, some of which include subgroups. Most (93%) of these O antigens are synthesized via the Wzx/Wzy pathway, 11 via the ABC transporter pathway, with O20, O57 and O60 still uncharacterized due to failure to find their O antigen gene clusters. Biosynthetic pathways are given for 38 of the 49 sugars found in E. coli O antigens, and several pairs or groups of the E. coli antigens that have related structures show close relationships of the O antigen gene clusters within clades, thereby highlighting the genetic basis of the evolution of diversity.
