AbstractOn the basis of NMR studies and analysis of the products of acid and alkaline hydrolyses the following structures were established for the repeating units of poly(arabitol phosphate) teichoic acid: α-6-deoxy-l-Talp-(1 → 3)-β-d-GIcpNAc-(1 → 2)-α-l-Rhap-(1 → 4(2)-d-Arabitol-PO4 and β-d-GlcpNAc-(1 → 2)-α-l-Rhap-(1 → 4(2)-d-arabitol-PO4. The molar ratio of these units is about 1.2:1.0, respectively. Poly(arabitol phosphate) teichoic acid is here reported in bacterial cell walls for the first time
