Application
- Charge and aggregation pattern govern the interaction of plasticins with LPS monolayers mimicking the external leaflet of the outer membrane of Gram-negative bacteria: This study examines how charge and aggregation patterns affect the interaction of plasticins with lipopolysaccharides (LPS) from rough strains like Salmonella enterica serotype Minnesota Re 595. The findings contribute to understanding the molecular interactions involved in microbial resistance mechanisms (Michel et al., 2015).
Biochem/physiol Actions
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.
General description
This product is prepared from Salmonella Minnesota strain Re 595 (Re mutant) using a phenol-chloroform-petroleum ether extraction procedure. The source strain is ATCC 49284. A unique structure in the LPS of strain Re 595 was shown to induce secretion and aggregation in human platelets.

Preparation Note
Prepared by phenol-chloroform-petroleum ether extraction.
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.

Studies have shown that glycosylphosphatidylinositols (GPIs) of Plasmodium falciparum activate macrophages mainly through Toll-like receptor 2 (TLR2)-mediated signalling and to certain extent through TLR4-mediated signalling to induce proinflammatory cytokine production. However, the ability of parasite GPIs to activate dendritic cells
