LPS profiling, adsorption assay, and spot assay of PA1RG in comparison with PA1 and PA1RG/wzy. (A) LPS profiling. Mutant PA1RG produced LPS lacking long chain O-antigen. Complementary strain PA1RG/wzy displayed the same LPS pattern to that of wild-type PA1. (B) Adsorption assay. Decreased PaP1 attachment was observed for mutant PA1RG, which could be complemented by providing wzy in trans. Data were expressed as mean ± SD from three biological replicates. ns, not significant. ∗∗∗p < 0.001. (C) Spot assay. Tenfold serial dilutions of PaP1 lysates were applied to the lawns of indicated strains. Phage-resistant PA1RG restored PaP1 susceptibility when bearing the intact gene wzy.
