Abstract excerpt
The Staphylococcus aureus autolysin gene, atl, encodes a unique 138-kDa protein (ATL) with amidase and glucosaminidase domains. ATL has been suggested to undergo proteolytic processing to generate two extracellular peptidoglycan hydrolases, 51-kDa endo-beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase (51-kDa GL) and...
