Bacteriocin protein BacL1 of Enterococcus faecalis targets cell division loci and specifically recognizes L-Ala2-cross-bridged peptidoglycan.

abstract：:Insertion-duplication mutagenesis was used to generate mutants of Streptococcus pneumoniae that produced truncated forms of PspA (pneumococcal surface protein A). The truncated products, representing from 20 to 80% of the complete PspA molecule, were all secreted from the cell and could be detected in unconcentrated c...
