Haptenic oligosaccharides in antigenic variants of mycobacterial C-mycosides antagonize lipid receptor activity for mycobacteriophage D4 by masking a methylated rhamnose.

The simple apolar C-mycosides, i.e., structurally well-defined hydrophobic glycopeptidolipids of several Mycobacterium species (see diagram below), were earlier shown to behave as receptors for adsorption of mycobacteriophage D4. This phage is usually virulent for Mycobacterium smegmatis. More compl...
