Title: Metabolic role of free mycolic acids in Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Author: Takayama K, Armstrong EL. Journal: J Bacteriol; 1977 Apr; 130(1):569-70. PubMed ID: 404289.

However, the transfer of mycolic acids from mycolyl acetyl trehalose to the cell wall still appears to be the more prominent route.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
