Cell wall peptidoglycan architecture in Bacillus subtilis.
The bacterial cell wall is essential for viability and shape determination. Cell wall structural dynamics allowing growth and division, while maintaining integrity is a basic problem governing the life of bacteria. The polymer peptidoglycan is the main structural component for most bacteria and is made up of glycan strands that are cross-linked by peptide side chains. Despite study and speculat...
متن کاملStructure of Bordetella pertussis peptidoglycan.
Bordetella pertussis Tohama phases I and III were grown to the late-exponential phase in liquid medium containing [3H]diaminopimelic acid and treated by a hot (96 degrees C) sodium dodecyl sulfate extraction procedure. Washed sodium dodecyl sulfate-insoluble residue from phases I and III consisted of complexes containing protein (ca. 40%) and peptidoglycan (60%). Subsequent treatment with prote...
متن کاملAnalysis of Dome Structure in Iranian - Islamic architecture and urban structure
The most important characteristic of dome and factors influencing it in the Islamic Iranian architecture that is different from other courses is construction and construction methods of them. Over time, different factors are involved in the process of formation of the domes. It is one of the factors influencing the structure of Iranian-Islamic domes. By examining the structure of Iranian-Islami...
متن کاملThe penicillin-binding proteins: structure and role in peptidoglycan biosynthesis.
Penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs) have been scrutinized for over 40 years. Recent structural information on PBPs together with the ongoing long-term biochemical experimental investigations, and results from more recent techniques such as protein localization by green fluorescent protein-fusion immunofluorescence or double-hybrid assay, have brought our understanding of the last stages of the p...
متن کاملStructure and uptake mechanism of bacteriocins targeting peptidoglycan renewal.
Bacteriocins are narrow-spectrum protein antibiotics released to kill related bacteria of the same niche. Uptake of bacteriocins depends critically on the presence of an uptake receptor in the outer membrane, a translocation pore and an energy-dependent activating system of the inner membrane. Most bacteriocins act on the inner membrane as pore-forming toxins or they target cytoplasmic DNA/RNA ...
