Bacterial autolysins trim cell surface peptidoglycan to prevent detection by the Drosophila innate immune system

Bacteria have to avoid recognition by the host immune system in order to establish a successful infection. Peptidoglycan, the principal constituent of virtually all bacterial surfaces, is a specific molecular signature recognized by dedicated host receptors, present in animals and plants, which trig...
