Popis: Four kinds of disaccharide peptides were isolated from a hydrolysate of L. plantarum cell walls by combined catalysis by M-1 N-acetylmuramidase and AM3-endopeptidase, which were derived from the cultural broth of Stm. globisporus 1829. The chemical structures of these compounds were determined by enzymatic and chemical analyses to be β-N-acetylglucosaminyl-(1→)-N-acetyl-muramyl-l-alanyl-d-isoglutaminyl-(l)-meso-2,6-diaminopimelic acid-(d)-amide (GMP3-A), β-N-acetylglucosaminyl-(1→4)-N-acetylmuramyl-l-alanyl-d-isoglutaminyl-(l)-meso-2,6-diamino-pimelic acid-(d)-amide-(l)-d-alanine (GMP4-A), β-N-acetylglucosaminyl-(1→4)-N,6-O-diacetyl muramyl-l-alanyl-d-isoglutaminyl-(l)-meso-2,6-diaminopimelic acid-(d)-amide (GMP3-B) and β-N-acetylglucosaminyl-(1→4)-N,6-O-diacetylmuramyl-l-alanyl-d-isoglutaminyl-(l)-meso-2,6-diaminopimelic acid-(d)-amide-(l)-d-alanine (GMP4-B). GMP3-A and GMP4-A were obtained in 20 and 10% yields from alkali-treated cell walls of L. plantarum, respectively. These compounds were examined as...
