Nascent teichoic acids insertion into the cell wall directs the localization and activity of the major pneumococcal autolysin LytA
The bacterial cell wall is in part composed of the peptidoglycan (PG) layer that maintains the cell shape and sustains the basic cellular processes of growth and division. The cell wall of Gram-positive bacteria also carries teichoic acids (TAs). In this work, we investigated how TAs contribute to t...
