Abstract excerpt

The pathogenesis and infectivity of Gram-positive bacteria are mediated by many surface proteins that are covalently attached to peptidoglycans of the cell wall. The covalent attachment of these proteins is catalyzed by sortases (Srts), a family of cysteine transpeptidases, which are classified into six classes, A - F, based on their amino acid sequences and biological roles. Clostridium perfringens, one of the...
