Structure of the large extracellular loop of FtsX and its interaction with the essential peptidoglycan hydrolase PcsB in <i>Streptococcus pneumoniae</i>

2018-10-02

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Streptococcus pneumoniae is a leading killer of infants and immunocompromised adults and has become increasingly resistant to major antibiotics. Therefore, the development of new antibiotic strategies is desperately needed. Targeting bacterial cell division is one such strategy, specifically targeting essential proteins for the synthesis and breakdown of peptidoglycan. One complex important to t...
