|January 1, 1973
Abstract:
The chemical properties of the cell wall of Mycobacterium lepraemurium strain Hawaii were investigated. Five subunits of the cell wall, arabinose mycolate, mycolic acids, tetrapeptide (Ala-Gln-diaminopimelic acid-Ala), disaccharide (N-acetylglucosaminyl-beta-1,4-N-glycolylmuramic acid), and arabinogalactan, were obtained, and their chemical structures were identified.
