Abstract:
:The fucose-/mannose-specific lectin LecB from Pseudomonas aeruginosa is transported to the outer membrane; however, the mechanism used is not known so far. Here, we report that LecB is present in the periplasm of P. aeruginosa in two variants of different sizes. Both were functional and could be purified by their affinity to mannose. The difference in size was shown by a specific enzyme assay to be a result of N glycosylation, and inactivation of the glycosylation sites was shown by site-directed mutagenesis. Furthermore, we demonstrate that this glycosylation is required for the transport of LecB.
