The aminoacyl analysis of endotoxic lipopolysaccharides (LPS) isolated from several bacteria revealed essential amounts of glycine, among the inherent LPS components. Glycine as a single amino acid was found only in a core part of LPS. The results indicate that amino acid is an integral constituent of core oligosaccharide in lipopolysaccharide.

The aminoacylation of bacterial polysaccharide antigens and the biological role of this phenomenon are poorly understood, although it might be relevant in the processes of the infection and immunity. Due to the lability of ester linked substituens on glycoconjugate antigens, usually such groups escaped detection during routine strustural investigation. Among the only few data available, these on the occurrence of glycine in endotoxic lipopolysaccharides of Gram-negative bacteria are well documented. This work summarises these data on glycine as an integral constituent of bacterial LPS and also on some other amino acid esters in teichoic acids and phosphatidylglycerol of Gram-positive bacteria.The possible functions are discucced of such noncarbohydrate ester linked substituets in bacterial antigens.

This work describes results of studies of O-specific oligosaccharide repeating units from lipopolysaccharides of two related Hafnia alvei serotypes. The linkage between O-antigen and the core region in PCM 1199 LPS has been also established. The O-acetyl residues present in the polysaccharides are involved in formation of epitopes.
