Identification of a peptide synthetase involved in the biosynthesis of glycopeptidolipids of Mycobacterium smegmatis.

Molecular microbiology - 1 Sept 1999

Abstract excerpt

Five rough colony mutants of Mycobacterium smegmatis mc2155 were produced by transposon mutagenesis. The mutants were unable to synthesize glycopeptidolipids that are normally abundant in the cell wall of wild-type M. smegmatis. The glycopeptidolipids have a lipopeptide core comprising a fatty acid amide linked to a tetrapeptide that is modified with O-methylated rhamnose and O-acylated 6-deoxy talose....
