The molecular mechanism of N-acetylglucosamine side-chain attachment to the Lancefield group A Carbohydrate in <i>Streptococcus pyogenes</i>

2017-08-25

Abstract excerpt

In many Lactobacillales species (i.e. lactic acid bacteria), peptidoglycan is decorated by polyrhamnose polysaccharides that are critical for cell envelope integrity and cell shape and also represent key antigenic determinants. Despite the biological importance of these polysaccharides, their biosynthetic pathways have received limited attention. The important human pathogen, Streptococcus pyogenes , synthesizes...
