  • Title: Cell wall composition in Corynebacterium bovis and some other corynebacteria.
    Author: Cummins CS.
    Journal: J Bacteriol; 1971 Mar; 105(3):1227-8. PubMed ID: 5547985.
    Abstract:
    The cell wall compositions of two strains of Corynebacterium bovis were found to differ: one contained lysine, rhamnose, mannose, and glucose, the other meso-alpha, epsilon, diaminopimelic acid (DAP), arabinose, galactose, and mannose. The walls of a strain of C. nephridii were characterized by l-DAP and galactose. Those of a strain of C. paurometabolum and of two strains of "lipophilic diphtheroids" contained meso-DAP, arabinose, galactose, and mannose as did walls of a reference strain of C. xerosis. The results are discussed in relation to the taxonomy of the organisms examined.
