Diversification of division mechanisms in endospore-forming bacteria revealed by analyses of peptidoglycan synthesis in Clostridioides difficile
The bacterial enzymes FtsW and FtsI, encoded in the highly conserved dcw gene cluster, are considered to be universally essential for the synthesis of septal peptidoglycan (PG) during cell division. Here, we show that the pathogen Clostridioides difficile lacks a canonical FtsW/FtsI pair, and its dc...
