Abstract
Representatives of the genera Brochothrix, Caryophanon and Listeria all contained fully unsaturated menaquinones as their sole isoprenoid quinones but E. rhusiopathiae contained neither menaquinones nor ubiquinones. Menaquinones with 6 isoprene units were the major isoprenologues in C. tenue whereas menaquinones with 7 isoprene units predominated in B. thermosphacta, L. grayi, L. monocytogenes and L. murrayi. L. denitrificans had menaquinones with 9 isoprene units.This publication has 7 references indexed in Scilit:
