Abstract
SUMMARYThe surface coat of Dunaliella parva Lerche was investigated using several techniques. Degradation by several cell lytic enzymes and ultrastructural observation revealed that D. parva has a specialized cell surface structure containing a glycoprotein that is sensitive not only to proteinases but also to lysozyme. This sensitivity was also demonstrated by electrophoresis of the cells and measurement of released glycerol after enzyme treatment. Immunochemical labeling indicated that the surface glycoprotein of D. parva is analogous to pepti‐doglycan.
