Structure of a new glycolipid from the Mycobacterium avium-Mycobacterium intracellulare complex.
From the lipid fraction of a freeze-dried cell mass of a strain of the Mycobacterium avium-Mycobacterium intracellulare complex, a new glycolipid was isolated and was characterized as 5-mycoloyl-alpha-arabinofuranosyl (1-->1')-glycerol, mainly on the basis of nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy studies.
