Genome-wide screen for genes required for smooth lipopolysaccharide production in Escherichia coli K-12
A functional wbbL gene was introduced into the E. coli K-12 KEIO single-gene deletion mutant library to restore OAg synthesis, enabling genome-wide analysis of S-LPS production by screening with colicin E2 and validated with LPS silver staining.
