We then generated ECA deficient mutants in genes associated with production of the polysaccharide, which we suspected would accumulate materials identical to our standards. We found that indeed accumulated products from these cells were indistinguishable from our enzymatically prepared standards, and moreover we observed a concomitant decrease in cellular BP levels with each mutant. This work provides the first direct biochemical evidence for the sequestration of BP upon the genetic disruption of glycan biosynthesis pathways in bacte
