Lipopolysaccharide - Wikipedia
LPS is a major component of the outer cell membrane of gram-negative bacteria, contributing greatly to the structural integrity of the bacteria and protecting the membrane from certain kinds of chemical attack.
Biochemistry, Lipopolysaccharide - StatPearls - NCBI Bookshelf
2023年4月17日 · Lipopolysaccharides (LPS) are important outer membrane components of gram-negative bacteria. They are large amphipathic glycoconjugates that typically consist of a lipid domain (hydrophobic) attached to a core oligosaccharide and a distal polysaccharide. These molecules are also known as lipoglycans due to the presence of lipid and sugar molecules.
