Ornithine-Containing Lipid of Bordetella pertussis That Carries Hemagglutinating Activity
AUTOR(ES)
Kawai, Yohko
RESUMO
The proposed structure of the ornithine-containing lipid of Bordetella pertussis is 3-hydroxyhexadecanoic acid amide-linked to ornithine and esterified to the second hexadecanoic acid. The aminolipid strongly agglutinates type A and B human erythrocytes.
