Scope and Contents

Contents

Maintenance of bacterial cell shape and resistance to osmotic stress by the peptidoglycan (PG) renders PG biosynthetic enzymes and precursors attractive targets for combating bacterial infections. Here, by applying native mass spectrometry, we elucidate the effects of lipid substrates on the PG membrane enzymes MraY, MurG, and MurJ. We show that di...
