The mycolic acids of these glycolipids are noncovalently intercolated with the mAGP.
Later, one of the polysaccharides was identified as arabinogalactan (AG), the basic constituent of the mAGP complex (Misaki & Yukawa, 1966), and the other as a pool of immunologically active lipoarabinomannan and inactive lipomannan (Misaki et al., 1977), both sharing a similar mannan core (Hunter et al., 1986; Hunter & Brennan, 1990; Chatterjee et al., 1992a;) (Fig. 2).
