GtcA is required for LTA glycosylation in Listeria monocytogenes serovar 1/2a and Bacillus subtilis
The cell wall polymers wall teichoic acid (WTA) and lipoteichoic acid (LTA) are often modified with glycosyl and D-alanine residues. Recent studies have shown that a three-component glycosylation system is used for the modification of LTA in several Gram-positive bacteria including Bacillus subtilis...
