On the mechanisms of lysis triggered by perturbations of bacterial cell wall biosynthesis
Abstract Inhibition of bacterial cell wall synthesis by antibiotics such as β-lactams is thought to cause explosive lysis through loss of cell wall integrity. However, recent studies on a wide range of bacteria have suggested that these antibiotics also perturb central carbon metabolism, contributin...
