Abstract
⺠Mycobacteria include many medically important pathogens. ⺠Biosynthesis of inositol lipids is complex and requires regulatory mechanisms. ⺠Controlling the level of d-myo-inositol 3-phosphate appears to be important. ⺠Regulatory proteins and spatial separations control inositol lipid biosynthesis. ⺠Control mechanisms exist for polymer elongation of lipomannan and lipoarabinomannan.
