Structure and reconstitution of a hydrolase complex that may release peptidoglycan from the membrane after polymerization

Bacteria are surrounded by a peptidoglycan cell wall that is essential for their survival(1). During cell wall assembly, a lipid-linked disaccharide-peptide precursor called Lipid II is polymerized and crosslinked to produce mature peptidoglycan. As Lipid II is polymerized, nascent polymers remain m...
