Poly(arabitol phosphate) teichoic acid in the cell wall of Agromyces cerinus subsp. cerinus VKM Ac-1340T.
On the basis of NMR studies and analysis of the products of acid and alkaline hydrolyses the following structures were established for the repeating units of poly(arabitol phosphate) teichoic acid: alpha-6-deoxy-L-Talp-(1-->3)-beta-D-GLcpNAc-(1-->2)-alpha-L-Rha p-(1-->4(2)-D- Arabitol-PO4 and beta-D-GlcpNAc-(1-->2)-alpha-L-Rhap-(1-->4(2)-D-arabitol-PO4. The molar ratio of these units is about 1.2:1.0, respectively. Poly(arabitol phosphate) teichoic acid is here reported in bacterial cells walls for the first time.
