Purification and Structural Determination of Nontoxic Lipid Obtained from the Lipopolysaccharide of Salmonella ep?zimurium* Nilofer Qureshi and Kuni Takayama (Received for publication, pril 16, 1982) From the Mycobacteriology Research Laboratory, William S. Middleton Memorial Veterans Hospital, Madison, Wisconsin and The Institute for Enzyme Research, University of Wisconsin, Madison, Wisconsin Edgar Ribi From Ribi ImmunoChem Research, Inc., Hamilton, Montana Endotoxin extracted from the heptose-less mutant of Salmonella typhimurium was hydrolyzed in 0.1 N HCl in methanol/water (l:l, v/v) at 100 "C to yield lipid, which was then fractionated on a Sephadex LH-20 column to yield a major monophosphoryl lipid fraction. The monophosphoryl lipid was further fractionated by preparative thin layer chromatography. This process yielded three major bands ("LC-1, -3, and -5) and two minor bands (TLC-7 and -9). The purity of these fractions was established by ion exchange and reverse phase high performance liquid chromatography. The thin layer fractions were analyzed by fast atom bombardment mass spectrometry. TLC-1 and -3 gave molecular ions (M-H)- at m/e 1730 and 1716, respectively. Both of these fractions contained P-hydroxymyristic, lauric, and 3-myristoxymyristic acids in 0- acyl linkages. The molecular formula and M, of TLC-1 are CgSH179022N2P and ; those oftlc-3 are Cg4H1T7022NZP and "LC-1 was a methyl homolog TLC-3. of The major component of TLC-5 (CsoHlslO22NzP and M, = ) gave a molecular ion at m/e 1506 and contained two 8-hydroxymyristic acids and a lauric acid in the 0-acyl linkages. The major component of TLC-7 (CsaH126019N2P and M, = ) and the single component of TLC-9 gave molecular ions at m/e 1280 and 1098, respectively. "LC-7 contained lauric and 8-hydroxymyristic acids in the 0-acyl link- ages. TLC-9 (CS~H~O~O~~NZP and M, = ) contained a single 0-acylated 8-hydroxymyristate group. TLC-1 and -3 were nontoxic in the chick embryo lethality test and regressed established tumors in the syngeneic guinea pigs. Ribi et al. (1) showed that when the crude endotoxin from the heptose-less mutant of Salmonella typhimurium was combined with trehalose dimycolate from mycobacteria in oil droplets and injected directly into established tumors (line 10 hepatocellular carcinoma) in syngeneic guinea pigs, over 90% of the animals were cured. Recently, Takayama et al. (2) isolated a nontoxic lipid fraction that also has antitumor activity. These studies indicated that the next step to take is * This work was supported in part by the Medical Service of the Veterans dministration. preliminary report of some of this work was presented at the nnual Meeting of the merican Society of Biological Chemists in New Orleans on pril 18-21, The costs of publication of this article were defrayed in part by the payment of page charges. This article must therefore be hereby marked "aduertisement" in accordance with 18 U.S.C. Section 1734 solely to indicate this fact to determine the relationship of the structure of lipid to both toxicity and tumor regression activity. However, structural determination requires highly purified samples and lipid is acknowledged to be a complex mixture. review of the literature suggested that the task of fractionating lipid is extremely difficult (3). Lipid is a glucosamine disaccharide with a (P)1 --* 6 linkage to which are attached two phosphate groups at posi- tions 1 and 4' (4, 5) (Structure 1). There are two N-acyl linkages at positions 2 and 2' with /I-hydroxymyristoyl residues (R,), and three 0-acylinkages at positions 3,4, and 6' to which 3-myristoxymyristoyl, P-hydroxymyristoyl, lauroyl, myristoyl, or palmitoyl residues (R2) can be linked. n examination of this structure shows that the variable factors in the biological activity-structure relationship might be: (a) the presence or absence of the two phosphate groups, (b) the number and kinds of 0-acyl fatty acids, and (c) the presence or absence of 4-amino arabinose or pyrophosphorylethanolamine. Our previous studies had already shown that the removal of the acid-labile sugar 1-phosphate group reduces the toxicity of lipid (2, 6). This problem called for the development of methods to completely separate lipid and to analyze its purified fractions. In our study, we were able to separate many structural analogs of lipid from acid-hydrolyzed endotoxin to virtual homogeneity and to establish their exact sizes by FB' mass spectrometry. Two of these well characterized fractions were found to be nontoxic and retained tumor regression activity. EXPERIMENTL PROCEDURES Materials-cetonitrile (distilled in glass), THF, chloroform, and methanol were purchased from Burdick and Jackson Laboratories, Muskegon, MI. Chemicals were purchased from the following companies: [l-i4c]acetate, mersham; TE and myristoyl chloride, ldrich Chemical Co.; tetrabutylammonium phosphate (Pic ), Eastman Kodak Co. and Waters ssociates, Inc., Milford, M; Silica Gel H thin layer plates, nalabs, North Haven, CT; and pporasil (10-pm silica gel), Waters ssociates. Growth ofbacteria-cells of the heptose-less mutant of S. typhimurium G30/C21 were grown in a New Brunswick 28-liter fermentor at 37 "C for h in a modified ammonium medium of nderson (2, 7). Radiolabeled cells of S. typhimurium were grown in 100-ml cultures containing 1 mci of [l-14c]acetate(60 pci/pmol). These cells were the source of I4C-endotoxin, which contained the label in the fatty acids to the extent of 99.7%. Isolation of the Endotoxin-The scheme for preparing and purifying lipid from S. typhimurium G30/C21 is shown in Fig. 1. The endotoxin was extracted from 1-kg cells by the method of Galanos et ' The abbreviations used are: FB, fast atom bombardment; HPLC, high performance liquid chromatography; THF, tetrahydrofuran; TE, triethylamine.

Scheme for preparing and purifying monophosphoryl lipid from S. typhimurium G30/C21. al. (8) with one modification: because the water precipitation step to recover the endotoxin from the phenol solution is incomplete, it was omitted. Instead, we added 6 volumes of diethyl ether/acetone (k5, v/v) to 1 volume of the phenol solution. The resulting precipitate was filtered through a sintered glass funnel and air-dried. The yield was 6.7 g of endotoxin/204 g of cells, dry weight. Preparation of Monophosphoryl Lipid -The endotoxin (4.9 g) was suspended in 700 ml of 0.1 N HCI in methanol/water (l:l, v/v), refluxed for 45 min, and centrifuged at 10,000 X g for 5 min. The residue was suspended in 120 ml of chloroform/methanol (21, v/v), washed with 48 ml of water, filtered, and dried. The yield of crude lipid was 3.4 g. The lipid (680 mg) was dissolved in 3 ml of chloroform/methanol (4:1, v/v) by warming, applied to a Sephadex LH-20 column (2 X 144 cm), and eluted with chloroform/methanol (4:1, v/v). Mass peaks were located by total phosphorus analysis of the column fractions or by charring aliquots on a Silica Gel G plate. Results of a representative fractionation which included 4 X lo7 cpm of I4C-lipid are shown in Fig. 2. total of 3.4 g of acid-hydrolyzed endotoxin was fractionated on the Sephadex LH-20 column to yield 1.66 g of monophosphoryl lipid. The purified monophosphoryl lipid was applied to Silica Gel H plates (500 pm) (20 X 20 cm) as a streak at 6-7 mg/plate and developed in chloroform/methanol/water-concentrated ammonium hydroxide (50:25:4:2, v/v) (9). The sample separated into three major (TLC-1,-3, and -5) and two minor (TLC-7 and -9) bands, as shown in Fig. 3.2 HPLC Fractionation-HPLC was performed with two Waters 6000 solvent delivery systems, a Waters 660 solvent programmer, a Waters U6K universal liquid chromatograph injector, a variable wavelength detector (Model LC-55, Perkin-Elmer Corp., nalytical Instruments), and a radial compression module (Model RCM-100, Waters ssociates). Radial Pak cartridge (8 mm X 10 cm) (C-18-bonded silica, Waters ssociates) was used at a flow rate of 3 ml/min. For the fractionation of labeled monophosphoryl lipid, a linear gradient of 80% acetonitrile in water to 80% THF in water was used over a period of 1 h. Both solvent systems contained 5 mm Pic. I4C-Lipid was also fractionated on a stainless steel DEE-pPorasil column (3.9 X 30 cm) prepared according to the method of Kundu and Roy (10). The column was eluted with a linear gradient of0-0.1 M ammonium acetate in methanol/water (95:5, v/v) over a period of 80 min at a flow rate of 1 ml/min. Fractions (30 s) were collected in counting vials and their radioactivity was determined. TLC-9 was obtained in greater amounts when the endotoxin was hydrolyzed with aqueous 0.1 N HCl at 100 "C for 40 min. nalytical Procedures-Total phosphorus and 2-keto-3-deoxyoctonate content were determined by the methods of Bartlett (11) and Osborn (12), respectively. Samples for the glucosamine assay were hydrolyzed in 3 N HCl for 4 h at 95 "C and analyzed by the method of Enghofer and Kress (13). Fatty cid naly~es-~~c-labeled TLC-1, -3, and -5 (80,000 cpm each) were hydrolyzed in 0.5 ml of 4 N HC1 at 100 "C for 5 h. P- Hydroxymyristic, lauric, myristic, and palmitic acids (350 pg) were added as carriers and the reaction mixture was extracted with 4 ml of petroleum ether three times. The extract was dried, methylated with diazomethane, and subjected to HPLC. Radial Pak cartridge (8 mm X 10 cm) was used with a solvent system of acetonitrile/water (173, v/v) at a flow rate of 3 ml/min. The fatty acid content was quantitated by determining the radioactivity of the separated fatty acid esters. The recovery of radioactivity from the cartridge was quantitative. TE Treatment-Purified labeled TLC-3 (20 pg and 20,000 cpm) was suspended in 300 pi of water and I0 pl of TE and heated at 100 "C for 0-10 min. One of the samples of TLC-3 (60,000 cpm) was suspended in water and heated to 100 "C. TE was then added and the mixture was allowed to stand at 22 "C for 4 days. Samples were Fm) and developed in chloroform/methanol/water/concentrated ammonium hydroxide (50:254:2, v/v). Bands were visualized by either exposing the plates to iodine vapor or by spraying with dichromatesulfuric acid reagent and charring very lightly. The visualized bands were scraped into vials and counted in a scintillation spectrometer. The reaction mixture, incubated at 22 "C, was analyzed by both TLC and reverse phase HPLC. Chemical Synthesis of Myristoxymyristic cid-p-hydroxymyristic acid (26.8 mg) and myristoyl chloride (50 pl) were added to 2 ml of anhydrous toluene and heated at 100 "C for 30 min. Water (2 ml) was added to the reaction mixture. The mixture was heated for 15 min to hydrolyze excess acyl chloride and extracted three times with 3-ml portions of chloroform/methanol (21, v/v), and the extract was dried with a stream of Nz. The synthesized 3-myristoxymyristic acid was purified by TLC using Silica Gel H (250 pm) plates and the solvent system of chloroform/methanol/water/concentrated ammonium hydroxide (5025:4:2, v/v). The following RF values were obtained: 0.61 for 3-mvristoxvmyristic " - acid, 0.50 for oleic acid, and 0.41 for the p- hydroxymyristic acid. FIG. 2. Sephadex LH-20 column chromatography of acid-hydrolyzed 14C-endotoxin (crude lipid ). Sample (220 mg, 4 x lo7 cpm) was dissolved in 3 ml of chloroform/methanol (4:1, v/v) and applied to a Sephadex LH-20 column (2 X 144 cm). Fractions of 2.5 ml were collected and aliquots were analyzed for both radioactivity (50 p1) and total phosphorus (10 pl) (absorbance at 830 nm). The second peak eluting from the column at 148 ml contained the monophosphoryl lipid.

Isolation and Purification of Myristoxymyristir cid from Lipid -Monophosphoryl lipid (30 mg) was suspended in 6 ml of water and 400 ~1 of TE and heated at 100 C for 1 h. The mixture was dried and the free fatty acids were extracted with 3-ml aliquots of acetone three times, filtered, and dried to yield 15 mg. The fatty acids were purified by TLC as previously described. Biological ssays-the endotoxicity of the purified monophosphoryl lipid fractions was measured as described by Milner and Finkelstein (14). The data are described as the chick embryo lethal dose. Tumor regression assay was carried out in the tumor model developed at the National Cancer Institute (15). The carcinogeninduced line 10 hepatocellular carcinoma was maintained in the ascites form and transplanted intradermally into g of syngeneic strain 2 guinea pigs. Testing with lipid fractions was carried out as described previously (2). Mass Spectral nalyses-fb mass spectrometry was performed on a MS-50 ma&v spectrometer (EI/Kratos, Manchester, England), utilizing a neutral beam of xenon atoms with a translational energy of 8 kv. Negative ion mass spectra were obtained and the scans were recorded manually. Measurements were based on a calibration standard of glycerol/potassium iodide (1:1, mol/mol) or phosphazine (R = pertluoroalkenes). Samples (100 c(g) were dissolved in 50 PI of chloroform/methanol (l:l, v/v) and an equal volume of TE was added prior to analyzing the sample. Samples were introduced at the inlet with a probe at ambient temperature. Electron impact mass spectrometry of methyl 3-myristoxymyristate was performed on an EI Model MS 902 mass spectrometer using an ionization potential of 70 ev and source temperature of loo140 OC. Samples were introduced at the inlet with a probe. Put ification of Monophosphoryl Lipid -The scheme for the preparation of highly purified monophosphoryl lipid from endotoxin of S. typhimurium G30/C21 is presented in Fig. 1. Endotoxin extracted from S. typhimurium by the method of Galanos et al. (8) was hydrolyzed in acid to yield the crude lipid. Crude lipid was fractionated on a Sephadex LH-20 column to yield partially purified monophosphoryl lipid (Fig. 2). The first peak to elute from the column contained the unhydrolyzed endotoxin and diphosphoryl lipid. The second peak (a major fraction) contained the monophosphoryl lipid. The third peak (which includes the radioactive shoulder) was identified by TLC to contain monophosphoryl lipid and some fatty acids. The last radioactive peak was devoid of phosphorus and contained mostly fatty acids which were probably released from the endotoxin during the acid treatment. The major peak containing monophosphoryl lipid was fractionated by TLC to yield five bands: three major, TLC-l, -3, and -5; and two minor, TLC-7 and -9 (Fig. 3). It is notable that the hydrolysis was carried out in 0.1 N HCl in methanol/ water (l:l, v/v). However, when the endotoxin was hydrolyzed in aqueous 0.1 N HCl, the amount of TLC-l produced was small (or nil), whereas TLC-3, -5, -7, and -9 were present. TLC-l through -7 were analyzed for purity by reverse phase HPLC (Fig. 4). TLC-l and -3 resolved into one major peak which represented about 85 % of the total radioactivity (Fig. 4, and B). Both of these fractions had an identical elution time of 41 min, indicating similarity of molecular weight. TLC-5 showed one major (72%) and one minor (18% ) peaks with elution times of 35 and 38 min, respectively (Fig. 4C). Most of the minor component in TLC-5 was present in TLC4, an intermediate TLC area that contained a mixture of TLC3 and -5. TLC-4 resolved into four major peaks which eluted between 28 and 45 min (data not presented). TLC-7 resolved into one major (48%) and two minor (21 and 16%) peaks, eluting at 25,28, and 35 min, respectively (Fig. 4L)). The peak eluting at 35 min was thought to be an overlapping contaminant from TLC-5. Based on the retention time values on reverse phase HPLC, the size differences could be predicted as follows (major components only): TLC-l = TLC-3 > TLC5 > TLC-7. lthough TLC-l and -3 could not be separated by reverse phase HPLC, these two fractions were separated by ion exchange HPLC using a DEE-PPorasil column. s shown in Fig. 5, the TLC-l peak eluted at 45 min, while the TLC-3 peak eluted at 52 min. This suggested that TLC-l has a lower net negative charge than TLC-3. Chemical nalyses-the chemical compositions of various TLC fractions of monophosphoryl lipid are shown in Table I. The glucosamine/phosphate ratio of these purified samples ranged from These purified samples were devoid of 2-keto-3-deoxyoctonate. Fatty acid analysis was carried out on %-monophosphoryl lipid using reverse phase HPLC (Fig. 6). Both TLC-l and -3 showed a 4:l:l ratio of [j-hydroxymyristic acid/lauric acid/myristic acid. This ratio was 4:l:O for TLC-5. Only qualitative fatty acid analysis was done for TLC-7 and -9. The results were consistent with the gas-liquid chromatographic analysis performed as previously described (2) (data not presented). Identification of Myristoxymyristic cid in Monophosphoryl Lipid -The 3-myristoxymyristic acid was isolated cid-catalyzed hydrolysis of O-acyl esters can occur by the,,,2 mechanism (16). The shoulder fractions representing about 10% of the total radioactivity in these samples are thought to be the higher homologues of the major components.
4 Structure of Nontoxic Lipid from TE-treated monophosphoryl lipid? and purified by TLC. The chemically synthesized 3-myristoxymyristic acid and the fatty acid isolated from the lipid were methylated and subjected to electron impact mass spectrometry (Fig. 7). Molecular ion (M) at m/e 468 and M-31 at m/e 437 were present. The cleavage of the internal ester bond yielded prominent fragments at m/e 211,240, and 257. This fragmentation pattern was consistent with the structure of the methyl ester of 3-myristoxymyristic acid.

Radial Pak ca&idge was used and the mobile phase was a linear gradient of 80% acetonitrile in water to 80% THF in water over a period of 60 min at a flow rat,e of 3 ml/min. Both solvents contained 5 mm Pit. Fractions were collected at 30-s intervals and assayed for radioactivity r at Incubation of %-TLC-3 in aqueous TE for 1, 2, 5, and 10 min at 100 C followed by the TLC analysis of the hydrolysis products showed that several new deacylated products were formed (Fig. 8). In this experiment, oleic and P-hydroxymyristic acid standards were added to the samples before TLC was performed. ll of the visualized bands were scraped into counting vials and assayed for radioactivity. The time course of degradation of %-TLC-3 by TE treatment was then determined (Fig. 9). Fig. 9 shows a rapid release of hydroxy fatty acid and a corresponding appearance of the first product, designated Prod-l (Fig. 9B). The rates of release of lauric and 3-myristoxymyristic acids were similar, corresponding to the rise in the second and third products (Prod-2 and Prod-3). TE hydrolysis carried out at 22 C for 4 days showed the formation of only Prod-l (Fig. 8) and the accumulation of only 3-[%]hydroxymyristic acid. portion of this reaction mixture was analyzed by reverse phase HPLC (Fig. 10). TLC-3, which has an elution time of 42 min, was degraded to yield a product with an elution time of 35 min. This deacylated TLC-3 was shown to give a molecular ion (M-H)) at m/e 1490 by FB mass spectrometry (Table II). This corresponded to a loss of a,8-hydroxymyristic acid from TLC-3 (m/e hydroxymyristic acid + HzO). This suggests that one of three O-acyl positions (position 3,4, or 6 ) on the glucosamine disaccharide is very labile to hydrolysis and that this position is occupied by a P-hydroxymyristic acid. FB Mass Spectral nalysis-the results of the FB mass spectral analysis of TLC-l through -9 are summarized in Table II. Representative spectra of TLC-l and -3 are shown in Fig. 11.

We could not determine the origin of the ion at m/e the fractionation of monophosphoryl lipid. This fractionation on a C-18-bonded silica cartridge required the addition of TLC-9 gave a single molecular ion at m/e 1098, identified tetrabutylammonium phosphate to the solvent system to to contain a single 0-acylated P-hydroxymyristic acid residue. serve as a paired-ion. High resolution was achieved based on The molecular formula is C%HIo30~8N2P and M, the = the total chain length of the fatty acid residues. This system Biological ctivity-the biological tests carried out on the easily separated the lipid (s) differing by only one fatty acid purified monophosphoryl lipid are shown in Table 111. The chick embryo lethality test showed that both TLC-1 and -3 unit. Partial separation was indicated for lipid (s) differing by only 28 atomic mass units (C-2). However, we could not were nontoxic, whereas TLC-5 exhibited some toxicity. ll follow the separation by changes in absorbance at 210 nm three of the purified monophosphoryl lipid fractions were active in the tumor regression assay. since highly purified THF with low ultraviolet absorbance DISCUSSION We have extracted the endotoxin from rough the mutant of S. typhimurium by the method of Galanos et al. (8) and isolated monophosphoryl lipid from acid-hydrolyzed endotoxin. The monophosphorylipid was found to be amenable to fractionation by silica gel TLC, ion exchange HPLC, and reverse phase HPLC. These separations were achieved according to the degree of polarity and 0-acylation. The purified samples were not only analyzed by the conventional chemical means but also by a new technique, FB mass spectrometry, which yielded precise molecular ion (M-H)- values. We were able to sort out the complex mixture of the structural analogs present in our lipid preparation. The distribution showed a wide range of different monophosphoryl lipid (s) with varying number and kinds of 0-acyl groups (summarized in Table IV). Our results were compared with the calculated 0-acyl contents of isolated endotoxins reported by other investigators. TLC-1 and -3 represented the lipid s with the highest degree of 0-acylation. It is notable that our preparations do not contain a significant amount of palmitic acid presumably attached directly to the sugar residue. The myristic acid in our preparation was predominantly associated with 3-myristoxymyristic acid. Smaller lipid (s) were present in our preparation. These included TLC-5, -7, and -9 with M, = 1507, 1281, and 1099, respectively. We suggest that the 3-myristoxymyristic acid in TLC-5 is absent, and in place, its there is a P-hydroxymyristic acid. We also suggest the absence of 3-myristoxymyristic acid in the lower analogs of monophosphoryl lipid. It is presently difficult to determine whether the 0-acyl contents of the lower analogs were naturally occurring or degradation products of TLC-1, -3, and -5. The 0-acyl content of TLC-9 was similar to that of the lipid precursor reported in the 2-keto- 3-deoxyoctonate-defective mutant of S. typhimurium by Rick et al. (18). We have developed a new reverse phase HPLC system for was needed. To our knowledge, this is the fist report which describes the successful HPLC fractionation of a large and amphipathic molecule such as lipid. The presence of 3-myristoxymyristic acid in lipid prepared from the endotoxin of Re mutant of S. typhimurium was confirmed by isolating the acid after TE hydrolysis at 100 "C and comparing its mass spectrum to that of the chemically synthesized acid. Myristoxymyristic acid was initially shown to be present in Salmonella minnesota R595 by Rietschel et al. (17). TLC-1 and -3 had identical fatty acid composition. However, the two compounds differed by 14 atomic mass units, suggesting the presence of an additional methyl group in TLC- 1. Since no methoxy fatty acid was detected on fatty acid analysis, the methyl group could not be on the fatty acid. Because of the large difference in the elution time of TLC-1 and TLC-3 on DEE-pPorasil column chromatography (also on TLC), suggesting a difference in charge, the methyl group might be on the phosphate residue. We do not know whether a TLC-1-type structure occurs naturally is or a product of the acidic methanol/water hydrolysis of endotoxin. Since monophosphoryl lipid (s) are nonvolatile, they are not amenable to analysis by the usual electron impact mass spectrometry. We showed that a newly developed technique of FB mass spectrometry (21, 22) is eminently suited for lipid analysis. By this method, we were able to obtain the molecular ion (M-H)- values with an accuracy of k1.0 atomic mass units. The presence of the phosphate group appeared to contribute to the strong signals received for the molecular ion in the negative mode of operation. When TLC-3 was treated with TE at 22 "C, P-hydroxymyristic acid was selectively released, probably from the 6' TBLE IV comparison of the 0-acyl fatty acid content of the purified monophosphoryl lipid fractions and the various endotoxin preparations as reported in the literature 0-cyl fatty acids" Source of lipid /endotoxin C-16 C-14 C-12 OH-C-14 MM M, Reference S. typhimurium G30/C21 TLC I 1731 Present study TLC Present study TLC-3 (TE) Present study TLC Present study TLC Present study TLC Present study S. minnesota R ' al.

The product of this hydrolysis was a compound with an M, = The 0-acyl fatty acid composition of this product is similar to that suggested for the endotoxin from Escherichia coli K12 by Rosner et al. (20). The suggested structure of the monophosphoryl lipid with the highest degree of 0-acylation (major component of TLC-3) is shown by Structure 2, where we have placed either lauroyl or 3-myristoxymyristoyl residue or hydrogen (R2) at positions 3 and 4 and a,l?-hydroxymyristoyl residue (RI) at position 6'. If there is a free hydroxyl group at position 3 or 4, the lauric acid could be associated with the nitrogen-linked hydroxy fatty acid. This should reflect the 0-acyl composition of the native endotoxin from S. typhimurium. The higher homolog of TLC-3 might have one of the RZ equal to a myristoyl instead of a lauroyl residue where the molecular ion (M-H)- would be We have described a simple and effective method for the purification and characterization of monophosphoryl lipid. TLC-1 and TLC-3 were found to be nontoxic in the chick embryo lethality test and to regress established tumors in syngeneic guinea pigs. These results show that the monophosphoryl lipid with the highest degree of 0-acylation (four 0-acyl groups) is nontoxic. We shall now test these preparations for other biological activities, ie. proliferation of B-cells and activation of macrophages. cknowledgments-we thank David Heller for the mass spectral determinations carried out at the National Science Foundation shared ' primary 0-acyl group at the 6' position of the disaccharide should be more reactive than the secondary ester groups at positions 2 and 3, since saponification reactions are subject to steric retardation (16). The stereochemistry of lipid is clearly unfavorable to consider the possibility of intramolecular, acyl migration to the 6' position (23). REFERENCES 1. Ribi, E. E., Granger, D. L., Milner, K.
