title: The teichoic acids of actinomycetes.
abstract: The discovery of teichoic acids in the cell walls of a number of actinomycetes suggests that these polymers are widespread in the order Actinomycetales. Structural variations in the teichoic acids are described and their possible physiological functions are discussed.
