Interference with murein turnover has no effect on growth but reduces beta-lactamase induction in Escherichia coli.

Journal of bacteriology - 1 Dec 1999

Abstract excerpt

Physiological studies of a mutant of Escherichia coli lacking the three lytic transglycosylases Slt70, MltA, and MltB revealed that interference with murein turnover can prevent AmpC beta-lactamase induction. The triple mutant, although growing normally, shows a dramatically reduced rate of murein turnover. Despite the reduction in the formation of low-molecular-weight murein turnover products, neither the rate...
