Transglycosylase and endopeptidase participate in the degradation of murein during autolysis of Escherichia coli.

The cell wall degradation products released from Escherichia coli during autolysis triggered by cephaloridine or trichloroacetic acid were isolated and characterized. Murein was selectively lost from the disaccharide tetrapeptides and the bisdisaccharide tetrapeptide components. Two major autolytic...
