Homeostatic control of cell wall hydrolysis by the WalRK two-component signaling pathway in Bacillus subtilis

Bacterial cells are encased in a peptidoglycan (PG) exoskeleton that protects them from osmotic lysis and specifies their distinct shapes. Cell wall hydrolases are required to enlarge this covalently closed macromolecule during growth, but how these autolytic enzymes are regulated remains poorly und...
