Location of peptidoglycan lytic enzymes in Bacillus sphaericus
The level of three peptidoglycan hydrolases was determined in the mother cell compartment and forespores of Bacillus sphaericus. Vegetative and sporulating cells contained in LD-carboxypeptidase active only on the vegetative cell wall peptidoglycan, and ...

Cooperativity of peptidoglycan synthases active in bacterial cell elongation
Growth of the bacterial cell wall peptidoglycan sacculus requires the co-ordinated activities of peptidoglycan synthases, hydrolases and cell morphogenesis proteins, but the details of these interactions are largely unknown.

From the regulation of peptidoglycan synthesis to bacterial growth and morphology
How bacteria grow and divide while retaining a defined shape is a fundamental question in microbiology, but technological advances are now driving a new understanding of how the shape-maintaining bacterial peptidoglycan sacculus grows. In this Review, we
