The molecule is a glycosylglycerol derivative in which the glycosyl moiety of glycosyl-sn-glycerol is beta-D-glucosyl-(1->6)-beta-D-glucosyl-(1->6)-beta-D-glucosyl attached at O-3, with O-1 and O-2 both carrying myristoyl substituents. Synthetic C. difficile lipoteichoic acid (LTA) molecule consisting only of lipid + core region. It derives from a 1,2-ditetradecanoyl-sn-glycerol.
