Bacillus megaterium GW1, radiolabeled with (DL + meso)-2,6-diamino[G–3H]pimelic acid ([3H]A2pm), was incubated with mixed rumen protozoa, mixed rumen bacteria or alone (control). The protozoa released a large number of radiolabeled compounds into the medium; many of these were peptides. This activity was not found in either rumen bacteria or control incubations. Key words: Protozoa, bacterial cell wall, (DL + meso)-2,6-diaminopimelic acid

The rigid layer and peptidoglycan fractions from two strains (ATCC 17100 and Rm 5) of the budding phototrophic Rhodomicrobium vannielii were isolated. Rigid layers of both strains contain protein in addition to peptidoglycan. They were free of polysaccharides and fatty acids. The respective peptidoglycan fractions contain glucosamine, muramic acid, ʟ-and ᴅ-alanine, ᴅ-glutamic and meso-diaminopimelic acid in approximately equimolar ratios except for a signifi­ cant lower relative ᴅ-alanine content. Analysis of partial acid hydrolysates revealed A 1 γ-type structure of Rhodomicrobium vannielii peptidoglycan (shown with strain ATCC 17100). An about 10-30% lack of N-acetylation of glucosamine was indicated. The degree of cross-linkage was found to be about 60% . No differences in peptidoglycan composition and degree of cross-linkage were found between swarmer-and chain-cells as examined with strain Rm 5.
