Abstract
Purified lipopolysaccharide vesicles dissociate when treated with ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) and then reassemble when dialyzed against Mg 2+ . Purified outer, lipopolysaccharide membrane (L membrane) is partially dissociated by treatment with EDTA and fully dissociated upon further treatment with Triton X-100. Both the partially and fully dissociated L membrane can be reassembled by dialysis against Mg 2+ . Reassembly of lipopolysaccharide or L membrane in the presence of intact flagella results in specific attachment of flagellar basal bodies to vesicles via the L and sometimes the M ring. Lipopolysaccharide and L membrane appear to be composed of substructures bound together by both Mg 2+ (divalent cation)-mediated and hydrophobic bonds.
