DOI: 10.1128/spectrum.04750-22
Abstract: The peptidoglycan (PG) biosynthesis pathway provides a rich source of novel antimicrobial drug targets. However, bacterial PG synthesis and its regulation is a very complex process involving dozens of proteins. ABSTRACT Bacterial morphology is largely… read more here.
