Clostridioides difficile peptidoglycan modifications
Current Opinion in Microbiology, 2022 The cortex and peptidoglycan of Clostridioides difficile have been poorly investigated. This last decade, the interest increased because these two structures are highly modified and these modifications may be involved in antimicrobial resistance. For example, C.
