Biochemical markers in the taxonomy of the Actinomycetales

R M Kroppenstedt et al. Experientia. .

Abstract

Useful biochemical markers for the classification of Actinomycetales are: 1. DL- or LL-diaminopimelic acid in the peptidoglycan, 2. sugar composition of polysaccharides, 3. fatty acid spectrum of cell lipids. The occurrence of various kinds of branched fatty acids and of unsaturated fatty acids is of special value.
