Cell Chem Biol
. 2022 Nov;
30(5):436-456.
PMID: 36417916
The bacterial cell wall is composed of a highly crosslinked matrix of glycopeptide polymers known as peptidoglycan that dictates bacterial cell morphology and protects against environmental stresses. Regulation of peptidoglycan...

Biochemistry
. 2020 Nov;
59(46):4470-4480.
PMID: 33136372
Peptidoglycan is a vital component of the bacterial cell wall, and its dynamic remodeling by NlpC/p60 hydrolases is crucial for proper cell division and survival. Beyond these essential functions, we...

PMID: 32416909
The NlpC/p60-family of peptidoglycan hydrolases are key enzymes that facilitate bacterial cell division and also modulate microbe-host interactions. These endopeptidases utilize conserved Cys-His residues in their active site and are...
