Abstract
The extractable lipid composition of Mesorhizobium ciceri strain HAMBI 1750 grown in a phosphate sufficient medium (79CA) is reported. Cardiolipin (CL—27% of total lipids), phosphatidylglycerol (PG—18%), phosphatidylethanolamine (PE—1%), phosphatidylcholine (PC—30%) and two methylated derivatives of PE, i.e. phosphatidyl- N, N-dimethylethanolamine (DMPE—1%) and phosphatidyl- N-monomethylethanolamine (MMPE—1%), were found to make up the phospholipids of the analysed bacteria. Nonphosphorus, ornithine-containing lipid (OL—10%) was also detected. Polar groups of phospholipids were predominantly acylated with cis-11,12-methyleneoctadecanoyl (lactobacillic) residues, whereas the ornithine lipid contained mainly 3-hexadecanoyloxy-11,12-methyleneoctadecanoic acid bound to the α-amino group.
