Coordinated and Distinct Roles of Peptidoglycan Carboxypeptidases DacC and DacA in Cell Growth and Shape Maintenance under Stress Conditions

Coordinated and Distinct Roles of Peptidoglycan Carboxypeptidases DacC and DacA in Cell Growth and Shape Maintenance under Stress Conditions

ABSTRACT Peptidoglycan (PG) is an essential bacterial architecture pivotal for shape maintenance and adaptation to osmotic stress. Although PG synthesis and modification are tightly regulated under harsh environmental stresses, few related mechanisms have been investigated. In this study, we aimed t...
