Abstract: | The phospholipids of Pediococcus cerevisiae were identified as phosphatidyl glycerol, lysylphosphatidyl glycerol, cardiolipin, phosphatidic acid and an unknown. Evidence was obtained for the presence of mono- and diglucosyl diglycerides. The major fatty acids were C18:1, C16:0, and C16:1, with smaller amounts of C14:0, C14:1, and C18:0. The methicillin-resistant strains did not contain more lipid or lipid phosphate than the parent strain when they were grown in the presence of methicillin. The percentages of fatty acids in the organisms were not markedly different. Some variation in the proportions of the phospholipids was noted. |
