Abstract
Cyanelle peptidoglycan from the glaucocystophyte algae Glaucocystis no stochinearum and Cyanoptyche gloeocystis was investigated by high-perf ormance liquid chromatography of muropeptides, supported by matrix-ass isted laser desorption-ionization mass spectrometry. The peptidoglycan s of both species are modified with N-acetylputrescine, as has been de monstrated for cyanelle peptidoglycan of Cyanophora paradoxa.
