Mutants defective in specific MA species. Two-dimensional argentation TLC of mycolic acids from H37Rv, ΔmmaA4, ΔmmaA3, ΔmmaA4::Comp, and H37Rv::mmaA3 strains grown planktonically in Middlebrook 7H9 medium. Samples were run using hexane-ethyl acetate (95:5 [vol/vol]) in the first dimension (1) and petroleum ether-diethyl ether (85:15 [vol/vol]) in the second (2). O, origin; α1–4, α-MA; K, keto-MA; M, methoxy-MA; H, hydroxy MA.
