Synthesis and Mitogenic Activity of Nonreducing-sugar Subunit Analogs of Bacterial Lipid A Composed only of 3-Hydroxytetradecanoic Acid and Its Homologs
Abstract:
Novel analogs of the nonreducing-sugar subunit of bacterial lipid A, which were composed only of 3-hydroxytetradecanoic acid and its homologs, were synthesized. These analogs exhibited significant mitogenic activity.
