Structure determination of the glycolipid sulfate from the extreme halophile Halobacterium cutirubrum

A sulfur-containing glycolipid, accounting for ca. 25% of the total polar lipids, has been isolated from the extreme halophile Halobacterium cutirubrum. The ammonium salt of the lipid was found to have the molecular formula C61H117O21S·NH4, and on strong acid hydrolysis it yielded 2,3-di-O-phytanyl-...
