Y. pseudotuberculosis VB, however, the same sugar is a-furanosidic. The LPS from other species of Yersinia contain 6-deoxy-o-gulose, which is a-pyranosidic in the LPS from Y. enterocolitica serovar 0 6,31. 

In addition to the sugars discussed in this Section, a number of glyculo-sonic acids will be discussed in Section V. D-t/ireo-Pentulose ( o-ribulose ) is a component of some LPS from Pseudomonas and Yersinia species for example, that from Y. enterocolitica 0 5,27, and occurs as -D-furanosidic terminal groups (16).

In the beginning of the eighties, the clinical application of DFO expanded to a new type of patient, namely those on maintenance dialysis. As we will see in Chapter 12, some patients suffered from aluminium overload, mostly due to the use of aluminium salts as phosphate binders, while others had obvious transfusional iron overload in the pre-erythropoietin era. DFO was therefore used either to remove aluminium, excess iron or both. Nephrologists established that DFO therapy did not increase the overall incidence of bacterial infections but that it slightly increased the risk of bacteraemia caused by Y. enterocolitica or Y. pseudotuberculosis, as had been previously observed in thalassaemic patients (Boelaert et ah, 1987 Tielemans et ah,...

Yersinia enterocolitica and Y. pseudotuberculosis are associated with intestinal infection. The organisms have been isolated from a variety of food sources, including raw goat and cow milk. 

Drugs of choice are not yet identified. Y. enterocolitica is generally susceptible to fluoroquinolones, alone or in combination with third-generation cephalosporins or aminoglycosides. Alternative agents include chloramphenicol, tetracycline, and trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole.

Also Enterobacteria are able to synthesize unsaturated fatty acids and to incorporate these into the lipid A component. Thus, when grown at low temperature (10- 15°C) E. coli (143), Salmonella spp. (142), P. mirabilis (37), and Y. enterocolitica (145) are incorporated into the lipid A component unsaturated fatty acids that are not present in LPS of bacteria grown at 370 C. For E. coli and Salmonella strains grown at low temperatures, it was found that (Z)-A9-hexadecenoic acid (A9-16 1) was incorporated at the expense of 12 0 (142,143), however, not quantitatively. Further investigations of these lipid A by l.d.-m.s. revealed that the unsaturated fatty acid specifically replaced the 12 0 residue in 14 0[3-6>( 12 0)] that is bound to GlcN(II) (37). A similar effect of thermoadaptation, resulting in the formation of amide-bound 14 0[3-6>(A9-16 1)], was detected in P. mirabilis and Y. enterocolitica (145).

Attempting to narrow down the range of activity to a specific receptor (FoxA receptor in Yersinia enterocolitica), an additional set of chiral ferrioxamine analogs 152-155, modified at the vicinity of the terminal amine, snspected to be involved in receptor recognition was prepared . Of particular interest is the observation that 152 was utilized by the uptake system of ferrioxamine B in Yersinia enterocolitica but failed to use the ferrioxamine uptake route in Pseudomonas putida, exhibiting therefore species specificity.
