Recent progress in our understanding of peptidoglycan assembly in Firmicutes [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Microbiology, 2021
Years of intense research have shown that the assembly of peptidoglycan, the extracellular mesh-like polymer surrounding the bacterial cell, is incredibly complex. It requires a suite of reactions catalyzed by dynamic macromolecular protein complexes whose localization and activity should be finely regulated in space and time.
