Peptidoglycan binding by a pocket on the accessory NTF2-domain of Pgp2 directs helical cell shape of Campylobacter jejuni
The helical morphology of Campylobacter jejuni, a bacterium involved in host gut colonization and pathogenesis in humans, is determined by the structure of the peptidoglycan (PG) layer. This structure is dictated by trimming of peptide stems by the LD-carboxypeptidase Pgp2 within the periplasm. The...
