SUMMARY: A survey of cytidine diphosphate compounds in representative species of Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria has been made. Cytidine diphosphate glycerol and cytidine diphosphate ribitol, first discovered in Lactobacillus arabinosus 17/5, were also found in L. plantarum. Cytidine diphosphate glycerol was found in L. bulgaricus and cytidine diphosphate ribitol in Bacillus subtilis. No correlation between the presence of cytidine nucleotides and the Gram reaction was found.
