EslB is required for cell wall biosynthesis and modification in <i>Listeria monocytogenes</i>

2020-02-03

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Lysozyme is an important component of the innate immune system. It functions by hydrolysing the peptidoglycan (PG) layer of bacteria. The human pathogen Listeria monocytogenes is intrinsically lysozyme resistant. The peptidoglycan N -deacetylase PgdA and O -acetyltransferase OatA are two known factors contributing to its lysozyme resistance. Furthermore, it was shown that the absence of compo...
