Analyses of OMGM length in ∆glfA, ∆glfA∆cmsA and ∆glfA∆cmsB strains. OMGMs were prepared from ∆glfA, ∆glfA∆cmsA, and ∆glfA∆cmsB strains and analyzed by gel filtration chromatography using a Bio-Gel P-2 (2 × 90 cm) column and dH2O as eluent. Arrows indicate elution times of void (Vo), mannose (M1), and mannobiose (M2). The sugar eluted was detected by the phenol-sulfuric acid method. The acid hydrolysis product of dextran was used as a molecular weight marker.
