Polar Lipid Composition in the Classification of Nocardia and Related Bacteria

MINNIKIN, D. E., PATEL, P. V., ALSHAMAONY, L., GOODFELLOW, M.·1977·International Journal of Systematic Bacteriology

Abstract

Strains representing the mycolic acid-containing taxa Nocardia, Mycobacterium, Gordona, Corynebacterium, Bacterionema, and the “rhodochrous” complex were analysed for polar lipids by two-dimensional, thin-layer chromatography; diphosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidylinositol were found in all strains and phosphatidylethanolamine was absent only in extracts of Corynebacterium and Bacterionema. Mono- and diacyl phosphatidylinositol dimannosides were present in all Nocardia, Mycobacterium, Corynebacterium, and rhodochrous strains and in the single strain of Gordona aurantiaca examined; Bacterionema and strains of the other Gordona species had only a monoacyl phosphatidylinositol dimannoside. Phosphatidylglycerol was present in substantial amounts in extracts of two strains of Bacterionema matruchotii and in reduced proportions in strains of several other species. Unidentified glycolipids were detected in the lipids of a majority of the organisms investigated.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
