Diverse functions for six glycosyltransferases in Caulobacter crescentus cell wall assembly.

Journal of bacteriology - 1 Oct 2013

Yakhnina Anastasiya A, Gitai Zemer

Abstract excerpt

The essential process of peptidoglycan synthesis requires two enzymatic activities, transpeptidation and transglycosylation. While the PBP2 and PBP3 transpeptidases perform highly specialized functions that are widely conserved, the specific roles of different glycosyltransferases are poorly understood. For example, Caulobacter crescentus encodes six glycosyltransferase paralogs of largely unknown function. Using...
