The effects of two myristic acid analogs on Junin virus (JV) replication were investigated. The compounds chosen for the study were DL-2-hydroxymyristic acid (2OHM), an inhibitor of N-myristoyltransferase (NMT), which binds the enzyme and blocks protein myristoylation, and 13-oxamyristic acid

Polymyxin-resistant mutants of Escherichia coli and Salmonella typhimurium accumulate a novel minor lipid that can donate 4-amino-4-deoxy-l-arabinose units (l-Ara4N) to lipid A. We now report the purification of this lipid from a pss(-) pmrA(C) mutant of E. coli and assign
