Role of the Penicillin-Sensitive Transpeptidation Reaction in Attachment of Newly Synthesized Peptidoglycan to Cell Walls of Micrococcus luteus

Cell-wall preparations of Micrococcus luteus (lysodeikticus) catalyze in vitro peptidoglycan synthesis from UDP N-acetyl-D-glucosamine, UDP N-acetylmuramic acid-pentapeptide, and glycine. Newly synthesized peptidoglycan is partially cross-linked by a transpeptidation reaction with concomitant releas...
