PolysacDB ID2374
Carbohydrate NameType 8 Capsular polysaccharide   (Drugpedia)
Carbohydrate ClassCapsular polysaccharide
Microbe NameStaphylococcus aureus   (NCBI Taxonomy)   (Drugpedia)
Basic StructureType 5 capsular polysaccharide consists of following residues : -4)-β-D-ManpNAcA3Ac-(1-->4)-α-L-FucpNAc-(1-->3)-β-D-FucpNAc-(1-
BCSDB StructureN/A
Proposed FunctionN/A
Antigenic NatureFormalinized cells
Carrier NameNil
Conjugate MethodNil
AntibodiesMab 18-1
Antibody Type ClassIgM
Assay SystemELISA and Bacterial agglutination assays
Cross ReactivityThis Mab reacted with each of five type 8 S. aureus strains but not with any type 5 strains. It was also completely unreactive with S. aureus strains possessing capsular types 1, 2, 4, and 7, but reacted with type 6 strain
Proposed EpitopeN/A
IEDB EpitopeN/A
Proposed UtilityThis Mab will be used in various studies of S. aureus capsular polysaccharides. In particular, the use of these antibodies should facilitate the biochemical purification and further characterization of these polysaccharides. In addition, these reagents can be used to investigate the role of capsular polysaccharides in the invasiveness and virulence of encapsulated strains of S. aureus. Knowledge gained from these studies will be applicable to the development of a suitable vaccine. These antibodies will also be evaluated as diagnostic reagents for use in staphylococcal disease
