The teichoic acid from the cell wall of Actinomadura cremea INA 292 has an unusual structure, being a poly(galactosylglycerol phosphate) chain with glycerol phosphate groups. Monomeric units of 1-O, beta-D-galactopyranosylglycerol monophosphate are joined in the polymer by phosphodiester links involving
Chiral high-performance liquid chromatographic separation of the three stereoisomers of 2,6-diaminopimelic acid without derivatization.
Peptidoglycans isolated from two Fusobacterium species of anaerobic bacteria were analyzed for constituent amino acids. Hydrolysis conditions were varied to optimize the yield of diamino acids from peptidoglycan. The o-phthalaldehyde derivatives of the diamino acid stereoisomers were separated by high-performance
The innate immune system comprises several classes of pattern-recognition receptors, including Toll-like receptors (TLRs) and nucleotide binding and oligomerization domain-like receptors (NLRs). TLRs recognize microbes on the cell surface and in endosomes, whereas NLRs sense microbial molecules in the cytosol.

A simple and sensitive method for separating and detecting the LL, DD and meso diastereomers of the dibasic amino acid diaminopimelic acid (DAP) in the peptidoglycan of Gram-positive bacteria is described. This method is based on reverse phase HPLC separation
