Gram-negative bacteria are a major cause of antibiotic-resistant infections due to their highly impermeable cell envelope which contains lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and prevents antibiotics from entering the cell. LPS biogenesis relies on the activity of the essential LPS transport machinery (Lpt), which represents an att...

The peptidoglycan (PG) sacculus of Gram-negative bacteria is continuously reorganized by a diverse enzymatic repertoire, including lytic transglycosylases, endopeptidases, carboxypeptidases, amidases and LD-transpeptidases, that operate alongside PG synthases to maintain envelope integrity throughout the cell cycle. Th...
