PBP1 of <i>Staphylococcus aureus</i> has multiple essential functions in cell division

2021-10-07

Abstract excerpt

Bacterial cell division is a complex process requiring the coordination of multiple components, to allow the appropriate spatial and temporal control of septum formation and cell scission. Peptidoglycan (PG) is the major structural component of the septum, and our recent studies in the human pathogen Staphylococcus aureus have revealed a complex, multi- stage PG architecture that develops during septation. Penici...
