Structural and Functional Insights into Peptidoglycan Access for the Lytic Amidase LytA of <named-content content-type="genus-species">Streptococcus pneumoniae</named-content>
ABSTRACT The cytosolic N-acetylmuramoyl-l-alanine amidase LytA protein of Streptococcus pneumoniae, which is released by bacterial lysis, associates with the cell wall via its choline-binding motif. During exponential growth, LytA accesses its peptidoglycan substrate to cause lysis only when nascent...
