Recombinant SiaDW-135 synthesizes high molecular weight W-135 polymer chains from short oligosaccharide primers. A, to test if recombinant SiaDW-135 can elongate short oligomer primers, CPS isolated from NmW-135 was hydrolyzed (CPS(h)) and used to prime the polymerase reaction. The production of long polymer chains demonstrated an active enzyme. High percentage PAGE and Alcian blue/silver staining was used to display starting, as well as synthesis products. B, CPS(h) produced from CPS was used in a time course experiment. Here products were analyzed on a 10% SDS-PAGE to additionally visualize the enzyme.
