Abstract

This protocol provides an easy and rapid method to prepare lipopolysaccharide from the gastric pathogen Helicobacter pylori for visualization on acrylamide gels by silver staining and for detecting the presence of Lewis antigens by Western blot. The silver staining is a four-step procedure, involving a 20 min-oxidation step, a 10 min-silver staining step, a 2-10 min color development step and finally a 1-min color termination step. Lipopolysaccharide from H. pylori wild-type and corresponding mutants analyzed by this method are described in a recent publication (Li et al., 2017). This crude preparation of LPS for silver staining is also applicable in other Gram-negative bacteria.

Background

Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) is a large and variable complex glycolipid that makes up the outer leaflet of the outer membranes of most Gram-negative bacteria. It is typically composed of three domains: a hydrophobic domain termed lipid A (or endotoxin), which is embedded in the outer membrane; a relatively conserved non-repeating core-oligosaccharide; and a variable O-antigen, which extends from the cell to the external environment. A unique feature of H. pylori lipopolysaccharide O-antigen is the presence of fucosylated oligosaccharide structures that mimic human Lewis antigens. Large-scale extraction of highly pure LPS from Gram-negative bacteria is labor-intensive and time-consuming. Here, in this protocol, we describe in detail the use of an easy and rapid crude preparation of LPS from the gastric pathogen Helicobacter pylori for visualization by silver staining and Lewis antigen expression by Western blot.
