Essential PcsB putative peptidoglycan hydrolase interacts with the essential FtsX <sub> <i>Spn</i> </sub> cell division protein in <i>Streptococcus pneumoniae</i> D39

17 Oct 2011

Abstract excerpt

The connection between peptidoglycan remodeling and cell division is poorly understood in ellipsoid-shaped ovococcus bacteria, such as the human respiratory pathogen Streptococcus pneumoniae. In S. pneumoniae, peptidoglycan homeostasis and stress are regulated by the WalRK (VicRK) two-component regulatory system, which positively regulates expression of the essential PcsB cysteine- and histidine-dependent...
