Effects of low PBP2b levels on cell morphology and peptidoglycan composition in Streptococcus pneumoniae R6.
Streptococcus pneumoniae produces two class B penicillin-binding proteins, PBP2x and PBP2b, both of which are essential. It is generally assumed that PBP2x is specifically involved in septum formation, while PBP2b is dedicated to peripheral cell wall synthesis. However, little experimental evidence exists to substantiate this belief. In the present study, we obtained evidence that strongly supp...
متن کاملEssential PcsB putative peptidoglycan hydrolase interacts with the essential FtsXSpn cell division protein in Streptococcus pneumoniae D39.
The connection between peptidoglycan remodeling and cell division is poorly understood in ellipsoid-shaped ovococcus bacteria, such as the human respiratory pathogen Streptococcus pneumoniae. In S. pneumoniae, peptidoglycan homeostasis and stress are regulated by the WalRK (VicRK) two-component regulatory system, which positively regulates expression of the essential PcsB cysteine- and histidin...

15 صفحه اولMinimal Peptidoglycan (PG) Turnover in Wild-Type and PG Hydrolase and Cell Division Mutants of Streptococcus pneumoniae D39 Growing Planktonically and in Host-Relevant Biofilms.
UNLABELLED We determined whether there is turnover of the peptidoglycan (PG) cell wall of the ovococcus bacterial pathogen Streptococcus pneumoniae (pneumococcus). Pulse-chase experiments on serotype 2 strain D39 radiolabeled with N-acetylglucosamine revealed little turnover and release of PG breakdown products during growth compared to published reports of PG turnover in Bacillus subtilis. PG ...
متن کاملCoordination of peptidoglycan synthesis and outer membrane constriction during Escherichia coli cell division
To maintain cellular structure and integrity during division, Gram-negative bacteria must carefully coordinate constriction of a tripartite cell envelope of inner membrane, peptidoglycan (PG), and outer membrane (OM). It has remained enigmatic how this is accomplished. Here, we show that envelope machines facilitating septal PG synthesis (PBP1B-LpoB complex) and OM constriction (Tol system) are...
