The presence, in varying amounts, of sugars characteristic of the S-specific repeating unit was detected in all rough mutants investigated. Definite conclusions about the core structure of the different rough mutants could not be drawn by using only the basis of the monosaccharide composition of the cell-wall polysaccharide. Ribose was found in the cell-wall polysaccharide of the smooth form in small amounts.", }
