A New Class of Cell Wall-Recycling l,d-Carboxypeptidase Determines β-Lactam Susceptibility and Morphogenesis in Acinetobacter baumannii

The hospital-acquired pathogen Acinetobacter baumannii possesses a complex cell envelope that is key to its multidrug resistance and virulence. The bacterium, however, lacks many canonical enzymes that build the envelope in model organisms. Instead, A. baumannii contains a number of poorly annotated...
