Requirement of the LtsA Protein for Formation of the Mycolic Acid-Containing Layer on the Cell Surface of <i>Corynebacterium glutamicum</i>

The <i>ltsA</i> gene of <i>Corynebacterium glutamicum</i> encodes a <i>purF</i>-type glutamine-dependent amidotransferase, and mutations in this gene result in increased susceptibility to lysozyme. Recently, it was shown that the LtsA protein catalyzes the amidati...
