In this report, we show that Le <jats:sup>x</jats:sup> expression is not a stable trait but that LPS displays a high frequency (0.2 to 0.5%) of phase variation, resulting in the presence of several LPS variants in one bacterial cell population. One type of phase variation implied the loss of α1,3-linked fucose, resulting in variants that expressed nonsubstituted polylactosamines (also called the i antigen), i.e., Le <jats:sup>x</jats:sup> minus fucose; LPS: (lactosamine) <jats:sub> <jats:italic>n</jats:italic> </jats:sub> -core-lipid A. The switch of Le <jats:sup>x</jats:sup> to i antigen was reversible. A second group of variants arose by loss of polymeric main chain which resulted in expression of monomeric Le <jats:sup>y</jats:sup> ; LPS: (Le <jats:sup>y</jats:sup> )-core-lipid A. A third group of variants arose by acquisition of α1,2-linked fucose which hence expressed Le <jats:sup>x</jats:sup> plus Le <jats:sup>y</jats:sup> ; LPS: (Le <jats:sup>y</jats:sup> )(Le <jats:sup>x</jats:sup> ) <jats:sub> <jats:italic>n</jats:italic> </jats:sub> -core-lipid A.

Part of the variation can be ascribed to altered expression levels of glycosyltransferase levels as assessed by assaying the activities of galactosyl-, fucosyl-, and <jats:italic>N</jats:italic> -acetylglucosaminyltransferases. Clearly phase variation increases the heterogeneity of <jats:italic>H. pylori</jats:italic> , and this process may be involved in generating the very closely related yet genetically slightly different strains that have been isolated from one patient. </jats:p> Phase Variation in <i>Helicobacter pylori</i> Lipopolysaccharide Infection and Immunity
