Dissection of Hexosyl- and Sialyltransferase Domains in the Bifunctional Capsule Polymerases from Neisseria meningitidis W and Y Defines a New Sialyltransferase Family

Crucial virulence determinants of disease causing Neisseria meningitidis species are their extracellular polysaccharide capsules. In the serogroups W and Y, these are heteropolymers of the repeating units (→6)-α-d-Gal-(1→4)-α-Neu5Ac-(2→)(n) in NmW and (→6)-α-d-Glc-(1→4)-α-Neu5Ac-(2→)(n) in NmY. The...
