Imbalance of peptidoglycan biosynthesis alters the cell surface charge of <i>Listeria monocytogenes</i>
2022-09-13
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> The bacterial cell wall is composed of a thick layer of peptidoglycan and cell wall polymers, which are either embedded in the membrane or linked to the peptidoglycan backbone and referred to as lipoteichoic acid (LTA) and wall teichoic acid (WTA), respectively. Modifications of the peptidoglycan or WTA backbone can alter the susceptibility of the bacterial cell towards cationic antimicrobials a...
