  • Title: Site-specific serine incorporation by Lif and Epr into positions 3 and 5 of the Staphylococcal peptidoglycan interpeptide bridge.
    Author: Ehlert K, Tschierske M, Mori C, Schröder W, Berger-Bächi B.
    Journal: J Bacteriol; 2000 May; 182(9):2635-8. PubMed ID: 10762270.
    Abstract:
    The FemAB-like factors Lif and Epr confer resistance to glycylglycine endopeptidases lysostaphin and Ale-1, respectively, by incorporating serine residues into the staphylococcal peptidoglycan interpeptide bridges specifically at positions 3 and 5. This required the presence of FemA and/or FemB, in contrast to earlier postulations.
