Teicoplanin is an antibiotic complex consisting of five closely related factors, T-A2-1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 and a more polar factor, T-A3-1. By controlled acid hydrolysis the complex is transformed into pseudoaglycones and finally into a single aglycone with consecutive removal of three sugar units. Quantitative determination of sugars obtained by degradative reactions and NMR/LC-MS studies on suitable derivatives confirmed that all the components carry one N-acyl-D-glucosamine and that at least two of them are characterized by N-decanoyl and N-undecanoyl chains on the D-glucosamine unit. The hydrolysis products still possess in vitro and in vivo activity.

D001419 Bacteria One of the three domains of life (the others being Eukarya and ARCHAEA), also called Eubacteria. They are unicellular prokaryotic microorganisms which generally possess rigid cell walls, multiply by cell division, and exhibit three principal forms: round or coccal, rodlike or bacillary, and spiral or spirochetal. Bacteria can be classified by their response to OXYGEN: aerobic, anaerobic, or facultatively anaerobic; by the mode by which they obtain their energy: chemotrophy (via chemical reaction) or PHOTOTROPHY (via light reaction); for chemotrophs by their source of chemical energy: CHEMOLITHOTROPHY (from inorganic compounds) or chemoorganotrophy (from organic compounds); and by their source for CARBON; NITROGEN; etc.; HETEROTROPHY (from organic sources) or AUTOTROPHY (from CARBON DIOXIDE). They can also be classified by whether or not they stain (based on the structure of their CELL WALLS) with CRYSTAL VIOLET dye: gram-negative or gram-positive. Eubacteria
