Summary
kdsA gutQ double mutants are non-viable and lack KDO; multicopy msbA, or unknown chromsomal mutation(s) in suppressed KDO-null strain KPM22, permit viabilty without KDO-containing LPS (Meredith, 2006). [More information is available at EcoGene: EG10518]. 3-deoxy-D-manno-octulosonate 8-phosphate (KDO-8-P) synthase is a key enzyme in lipopolysaccharide biosynthesis. [More information is available at EcoCyc: EG10518].
