Digestion of proteoglycan by Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron.

abstract：:Sinorhizobium meliloti is a soil bacterium capable of invading and establishing a symbiotic relationship with alfalfa plants. This invasion process requires the synthesis, by S. meliloti, of at least one of the two symbiotically important exopolysaccharides, succinoglycan and EPS II. We have previously shown that the ...

abstract：:Peptidoglycan was prepared from purified Bacillus subtilis spores of wild-type and several mutant strains. Digestion with muramidase resulted in cleavage of the glycosidic bonds adjacent to muramic acid replaced by peptide or alanine side chains but not the bonds adjacent to muramic lactam. Reduction of the resulting ...
