Altered murein composition in a DD-carboxypeptidase mutant of Streptococcus pneumoniae.

Journal of bacteriology - 1 Aug 1992

Severin A, Schuster C, Hakenbeck R, Tomasz A

Abstract excerpt

The muropeptide composition of a Streptococcus pneumoniae mutant in which the DD-carboxypeptidase (penicillin-binding protein 3) gene was interrupted by plasmid insertion close to the 3' end of the gene was examined. Extensive compositional changes were observed: the linear pentapeptide, a minor component of the parental cells, became the most abundant monomeric peptide in the mutant wall, while the proportion of...
