Inactivation of DltA Modulates Virulence Factor Expression in Streptococcus pyogenes

BACKGROUND: D-alanylated lipoteichoic acid is a virtually ubiquitous component of Gram-positive cell walls. Mutations in the dltABCD operon of numerous species exhibit pleiotropic effects, including reduced virulence, which has been attributed to increased binding of cationic antimicrobial peptides...
