Abstract

1. The lipids of ten Gram-positive bacteria have been isolated and the presence in each of a glycosyl diglyceride was established. 2. The glycolipid fractions were isolated and deacylated to give water-soluble glycosides which were purified by paper chromatography. Partial structures for the glycosides have been deduced from chemical and enzymic studies. 3. Nine of the glycosides were disaccharides glycosidically linked to the 1-position of glycerol: the remaining glycoside contained a trisaccharide similarly linked to glycerol.
