Expression of Sialylated or Paragloboside-Like Lipooligosaccharides Are Not Required for Pustule Formation by Haemophilus ducreyi in Human Volunteers

The lipooligosaccharide (LOS) of Haemophilus ducreyi, the etiologic agent of chancroid, chemically and immunologically resembles human glycosphingolipid antigens. To test whether LOS that contains paragloboside-like structures was required for pustule formation, an isogenic mutant (35000HP-RSM2) was...
