Title: Thermozeaxanthins, new carotenoid-glycoside-esters from thermophilic eubacterium thermus thermophilus
Abstract: New zeaxanthin-(di)glucoside-branched fatty acid esters, thermozeaxanthin-13, −15, and −17 (1–3), thermobiszeaxanthin-13-13, −13–15, and −15-15 (4–6) were isolated from the thermophilic eubacterium Thermus thermophilus. Their structures were determined by spectral means. The membrane of this thermophilic bacterium is thought to be stabilized by these carotenoids.
