Journal ArticleDOI
Murein segregation in Escherichia coli.
TL;DR: Peptidoglycan (murein) segregation has been studied by means of a new labeling method and revealed that murein in polar caps is metabolically inert and is segregated in a conservative fashion.
Journal ArticleDOI
dacD, an Escherichia coli gene encoding a novel penicillin-binding protein (PBP6b) with DD-carboxypeptidase activity.
TL;DR: An open reading frame with the capacity to encode a 43-kDa polypeptide whose predicted amino acid sequence is strikingly similar to those of the well-known DD-carboxipeptidases penicillin-binding proteins PBP5 and PBP6 was identified.
Journal ArticleDOI

Baltasar Ruiz-Roso,José Carlos Quintela,Ester de la Fuente,Javier Haya,Lourdes Pérez-Olleros +4 more
TL;DR: The consumption of fiber very rich in insoluble polyphenols shows beneficial effects on human blood lipid profile and may be effective in prevention and treatment of hyperlipemia.
Journal ArticleDOI
Structure of peptidoglycan from Thermus thermophilus HB8.
TL;DR: The composition and structure of peptidoglycan (murein) extracted from the extreme thermophilic eubacterium Thermus thermophilus HB8 are presented and phenylacetic acid is described as a component of bacterial murein for the first time.
Journal ArticleDOI
Peptidoglycan structure of Salmonella typhimurium growing within cultured mammalian cells
TL;DR: Results show that intracellular residence of S. typhimurium within epithelial cells is accompanied by significant changes in the bacterial cell wall, which suggests an active role for an N‐acetyl‐muramyl‐l‐alanine‐amidase in remodelling the peptidoglycan of intrACEllular S. Typhimurial.
