Sortases and the Art of Anchoring Proteins to the Envelopes of Gram-Positive Bacteria

1 Mar 2006

Abstract excerpt

The cell wall envelopes of gram-positive bacteria represent a surface organelle that not only functions as a cytoskeletal element but also promotes interactions between bacteria and their environment. Cell wall peptidoglycan is covalently and noncovalently decorated with teichoic acids, polysaccharides, and proteins. The sum of these molecular decorations provides bacterial envelopes with species- and...
