PREPARATION OF A FRAGMENT OF THE CELL WALL TEICHOIC ACID OF BACILLUS LICHENIFORMIS ATCC 9945 VIA A SOLID PHASE APPROACH

Article abstract of DOI:10.1016/S0040-4039(01)81041-8

The phosphodiester bond between C-3OH and C-6'OH of the glycerol and galactose moieties of the repeating unit 1-0-<β-D-galactopyranosyl>glycerol of teichoic acid of a Bacillus organism was introduced via a phosphite-triester approach.The elongation process could be realized by adopting a solid-support method, to give, after deblocking, teichoic acid fragment having four phosphodiester linkages.
