Crystallographic analysis of Staphylococcus aureus LcpA, the primary wall teichoic acid ligase

Gram-positive bacteria, including major clinical pathogens such as Staphylococcus aureus, are becoming increasingly drug-resistant. Their cell walls are composed of a thick layer of peptidoglycan (PG) modified by the attachment of wall teichoic acid (WTA), an anionic glycopolymer that is linked to p...
