Fluorophore-assisted carbohydrate electrophoresis (FACE) of lipophosphoglycan (LPG) repeat units and monosaccharides of Le. amazonensis (PH8 and Josefa strains). a FACE analysis of dephosphorylated repeat units of PH8 and Josefa strain. Lane Std1: oligoglucose ladder represented by G1-G7; Lane PH8: repeat unit of PH8 strain; Lane Josefa: repeat unit of Josefa strain. b FACE of monosaccharides from LPG repeat units after strong acid hydrolysis. Lane Std2: monosaccharide standards (Man = mannose, Glc = glucose, Gal = galactose); Lane PH8: PH8 strain; Lane Jos: Josefa strain
