| Abstract: | It is shown that the lipids from 5 extreme thermoacidophile bacteria of the Caldariella group—2 isolates of Sulfolobus acidocaldarius, one of Thermoplasma acidophila, and 2 of the MT series—are all based on the same type of cyclic diether combining glycerol and one of a series of very unusual C40 isoprenoid diols. The relative proportions of the different C40 components in each isolate have been determined. |
