Effects of furazlocillin, a beta-lactam antibiotic which binds selectively to penicillin-binding protein 3, on Escherichia coli mutants deficient in other penicillin-binding proteins.

Furazlocillin binds selectively to penicillin-binding protein 3 (PBP-3), prevents septation of Escherichia coli, and allows the cells to form long filaments without lysis. The effect of furazlocillin on the morphology, autolysis, and murein synthesis of E. coli mutants deficient in either PBP-1A, PB...
