...Also notable is the fact that mutants lacking PBP1B lyse either when the elongationspecific protein PBP2 is inactivated or when the division-specific PBP3 is inactivated, whereas under the same conditions, mutants lacking PBP1A continue to grow as spherical or filamentous cells, respectively (22–24)....

...The TPase activity of PBP2 was detected only recently (5), and though PBP3 exhibits some TPase activity toward artificial substrates (60, 61), no such activity has been measured in the presence of April 2017 Volume 199 Issue 7 e00612-16 jb.asm.org 12 natural substrates (14)....

...The fact that the TPase activity of PBP1B is required to create normally shaped cells is somewhat surprising because the TPase activities of the two class B PBPs have long been considered the primary determinants of whether E. coli elongates to form a rod shape (PBP2) or whether the cells divide (PBP3) (7)....

...These novel observations predict that the SEDS members RodA and FtsW may act in concert with two class B PBPs (in E. coli, PBP2 and PBP3, respectively) to synthesize PG, in addition to or perhaps independently of PBPs 1A and 1B (8, 9)....

...Live spherical cells that still retained PG were created by adding compound A22 [S-(3,4-dichlorobenzyl) isothiourea; final concentration, 5 g/ml], incubating for an additional 1 h at 37°C, and then labeling with 500 M HADA for 20 min, after which the cells were fixed at room temperature for 15 min in 2.8% formaldehyde plus 0.04% glutaraldehyde, washed twice with PBS, pH 7.4, and prepared for microscopy....
