Analysis of the peptidoglycan structure of Bacillus subtilis endospores.

Journal of bacteriology - 1 Nov 1996

Popham D L, Helin J, Costello C E, Setlow P

Abstract excerpt

Peptidoglycan was prepared from purified Bacillus subtilis spores of wild-type and several mutant strains. Digestion with muramidase resulted in cleavage of the glycosidic bonds adjacent to muramic acid replaced by peptide or alanine side chains but not the bonds adjacent to muramic lactam. Reduc...
