Mycolic acid. Mycolic acids are long fatty acids found in the cell walls of the mycolata taxon, a group of bacteria that includes Mycobacterium tuberculosis, the causative agent of the disease tuberculosis. They form the major component of the cell wall of mycolata species.
Bacteria fall under 2 categories based on their cell wall, either Gram positive or Gram negative. The bacterial cell wall is composed of peptidoglycan. A special staining tecâ¦hnique called Gram staining is used to differentiate between these bacteria. Gram positive bacteria, containing a thick layer of peptidoglycan, will retain/absorb more of the crystal violet dye and appear purple/blueish after being stained.
