Role of penicillin-binding protein 1b in competitive stationary-phase survival of Escherichia coli.

FEMS microbiology letters - 1 Oct 2006

Pepper Evan D, Farrell Michael J, Finkel Steven E

Abstract excerpt

The penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs) catalyze the synthesis and modification of bacterial cell wall peptidoglycan. Although the biochemical activities of these proteins have been determined in Escherichia coli, the physiological roles of many PBPs remain enigmatic. Previous studies have cast doubt on the individual importance of the majority of PBPs during log phase growth. We show here that PBP1b is vital for...
