The Cell Wall Polymer Lipoteichoic Acid Becomes Nonessential in <named-content content-type="genus-species">Staphylococcus aureus</named-content> Cells Lacking the ClpX Chaperone

ABSTRACT Lipoteichoic acid (LTA) is an important cell wall component of Gram-positive bacteria and a promising target for the development of vaccines and antimicrobial compounds against Staphylococcus aureus. Here we demonstrate that mutations in the conditionally essential ltaS (LTA synthase) gene...
