The chemical properties of the cell wall of Mycobacterium lepraemurium strain Hawaii were investigated. Five subunits of the cell wall, arabinose mycolate, mycolic acids, tetrapeptide (Ala-Gln-diaminopimelic acid-Ala), disaccharide (N-acetylglucosaminyl-beta-1,4-N-glycolylmuramic acid), and arabinogalactan, were obtained, and their chemical structures were identified.
对夏威夷型鼠麻风杆菌细胞壁的化学性质进行了研究。获得了细胞壁的五个亚基,即阿拉伯糖霉菌酸、霉菌酸、四肽(丙氨酸-谷氨酰胺-二氨基庚二酸-丙氨酸)、二糖(N-乙酰葡糖胺基-β-1,4-N-糖基化胞壁酸)和阿拉伯半乳聚糖,并确定了它们的化学结构。
