Abstract
Long-chain 1,2-diols constitute the hydrophobic backbone of membrane lipids (replacing glycerolipids) in the thermophilic eubacterium Thermomicrobium roseum. The effects of incubation temperature on chain length and chain branching of diols and fatty acids were investigated. The percentage of branched chains decreased, and chain length increased slightly, with increased growth temperatures.Entities:
