Endogenous cell wall degrading enzyme LytD is important for the biocontrol activity of Bacillus subtilis
Autolysins are endogenous cell wall degrading enzymes (CWDEs) in bacteria that remodel the peptidoglycan layer of its own cell wall. In the Bacillus subtilis genome, at least 35 autolysin genes have been identified. However, the study of their roles in bacterial physiology has been hampered by their...
