Immunochemical analysis of the teichoic acid from Staphylococcus simulans. 1980

A Osland, and A Grov, and P Oeding

The wall teichoic acid of Staphylococcus simulans has been characterized as a glycerol phosphate polymer with glycosidically linked N-acetylglucosamine. Susceptibility to beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase and serological similarity to poly C beta from Staphylococcus saprophyticus, showed that the amino sugar is in the beta-configuration.

D013210	Staphylococcus	A genus of gram-positive, facultatively anaerobic, coccoid bacteria. Its organisms occur singly, in pairs, and in tetrads and characteristically divide in more than one plane to form irregular clusters. Natural populations of Staphylococcus are found on the skin and mucous membranes of warm-blooded animals. Some species are opportunistic pathogens of humans and animals.
D013682	Teichoic Acids	Bacterial polysaccharides that are rich in phosphodiester linkages. They are the major components of the cell walls and membranes of many bacteria.	Glycerol Teichoic Acid,Glycerol Teichoic Acids,Acid, Glycerol Teichoic,Acids, Glycerol Teichoic,Acids, Teichoic
