Non-classical transpeptidases yield insight into new antibacterials
Bacterial survival requires an intact peptidoglycan layer, a 3-dimensional exoskeleton that encapsulates the cytoplasmic membrane. Historically, the final steps of peptidoglycan synthesis are known to be carried out by d,d-transpeptidases, enzymes that are inhibited by the β-lactams which constitute...
