Abstract excerpt
Phage resistance and apparent lysogenization of Mycobacterium smegmatis due to infection with mycobacteriophage D29 results in the emergence of new variations of the pyruvylated, acylated trehaloses described by Saadat and Ballou, J. Biol. Chem. 258 (1983) 1813-1818. Thin-layer chromatography of the glycolipids from two strains of phage-resistant M. smegmatis (mc(2)22 and mc(2)11) and comparison with those from...
