Abstract

SUMMARY: The most abundant fatty acids of Caulobacter crescentus, as determined by gas-liquid chromatography, were 18:1,16:1,16:0, 12:0, 15:0, 17:0 and cyclopropane acid 17 Δ. The composition of the two morphological forms of this bacterium differed, in that the stalked bacteria and isolated stalk fragments contained more 16:0 and 17Δ, and less 16:1 than the swarmers.
