The first known 1-carboxyethyl ether of a sugar was 2-amino-3-0-[(/ )-l-carboxyethyl]-2-deoxy-D-glucose or muramic acid (37). It is a component of the polysaccharide moiety of the peptidoglycan in the bacterial cell-wall. It is partially replaced by the mamo isomer, 2-amino-3-6>-[(/ )-l-carboxy-ethyl]-2-deoxy-D-mannose, in the peptidoglycan from Micrococcus lyso-deikticus. [Pg.303]

In the peptidoglycan from some mycobacteria, the muramic acid is A -gly-colylated, not A-acetylated. As already mentioned, ester-linked lactic acid... [Pg.308]

In muramic acid, the 2-hydroxyl group of D-glucose is replaced by an amine group, and a lactic acid group is attached to OH-3. The structure of muramic acid [2-amino-3-0-(D-l-carboxyethyl)-2-deoxy-D-glucopyranose] is given in formula 12. [Pg.112]

Listowsky and coworkers showed that the c.d. of this sugar derivative is due entirely to lactic acid, and confirmed that this chromophore is in the D configuration for muramic acid. N-Acetylmuramic acid, in which the amino group is replaced by an amido group at C-2, has a c.d. spectrum that is roughly a linear combination of the lactic acid in muramic acid and the amide in 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-D-glucose. This indicates that the amide chromophore and the lactic acid chromophore in N-acetylmuramic acid behave independently. [Pg.113]

Chlamydias, however, are bacteria and have been shown to possess a cell wall containing muramic acid (section 2.2.1), to contain ribosomes of the bacterial (prokaryotic) type, to reproduce themselves by binary fission and to be inhibited by antibiotics active against bacteria. [Pg.31]

Burkholderia (formeriy Pseudomonas) cepacia is intrinsically resistant to a number of biocides, notably benzalkonium chloride and chlorhexidine. Again, the outer membrane is likely to act as a permeability barrier. By contrasL Ps. stutzeri (an organism implicated in eye infections caused by some cosmetic products) is invariably intrinsically sensitive to a range of biocides, including QACs and chlorhexidine. This organism contains less wall muramic acid than other pseudomonads but it is imclear as to whether this could be a contributory factor in its enhanced biocide susceptibility. [Pg.269]

B. Hexoses.—Muramic acid 6-phosphate (63), which occurs in the cell walls of bacteria, has now been synthesised, thus confirming the structure of this acid-stable compound. [Pg.142]
