title: A new type of glycoglycerolipids from Corynebacterium aquaticum.
abstract: A new type of glycoglycerolipids, S361A and S365A, were obtained from Corynebacterium aquaticum strains, S361 and S365, newly isolated from soils, and were identified as (2R)-1-[alpha-glucopyranosyl-(1alpha-3)-(6O-acyl-alpha-manno pyranosyl)]-3-O-acylglycerol and (2R)-1-[alpha-mannopyranosyl-(1alpha-3)-(6-O-acyl-alpha-mannopyran osyl)]-3-O-acylglycerol, respectively. S365A was identical to a novel glycoglycerolipid recently isolated from some bacteria, but S361A was a new analog having a glucosylmannosyl in place of the dimannosyl group. Our results indicate that this sn-2 lysotype of glyceroglycolipids may be widely distributed in bacteria.
