title: Identification of acyl phosphatidylglycerol as a minor phospholipid of Pseudomonas BAL-31.
abstract: Compound X, a minor phospholipid of Pseudomonas BAL-31 and bacteriophage PM2, has been identified as X-3-phosphatidyl-1'-(3'-acyl)-glycerol, or acyl phosphatidylglycerol. The water-soluble product obtained by mild alkaline hydrolysis showed the same RF value as that of glycerophosphoryl-glycerol. The chemical analysis gave the ratio 1 : 3 : 2 for phosphate-acyl ester-glycerol. The position of the third acyl group was determined by nuclear magnetic resonance techniques.
