  • Title: Characterization of the Bacillus subtilis CwbA protein which stimulates cell wall lytic amidases.
    Author: Kuroda A, Sekiguchi J.
    Journal: FEMS Microbiol Lett; 1992 Aug 01; 74(1):109-13. PubMed ID: 1355454.
    Abstract:
    The Bacillus subtilis cell wall binding protein, CwbA, stimulated the cell wall lytic activities of the B. subtilis and B. licheniformis autolysins (CwlA and CwlM, respectively) in addition to that of the major B. subtilis autolysin (CwlB). Even though the substrate for the enzyme reaction was changed from B. subtilis cell wall containing a teichoic acid to Micrococcus luteus cell wall containing a teichuronic acid, the stimulatory effect of CwbA on CwlA activity was observed.
