Mycolic acid is a long Fatty acid found in the cell walls of the mycolata taxon, a group of bacteria that includes Mycobacterium tuberculosis, the causative agent of the disease tuberculosis.

Actions biochimiques/physiologiques

Methoxy mycolic acids are antigenic and are specific for pathogenic mycobacterial class. The three types of mycolic acids including the methoxy-MA display variation in their antigenicity with reference to antibody recognition.
