Antibiotic fosmidomycin protects bacteria from cell wall perturbations by antagonizing oxidative damage-mediated cell lysis

Cell wall peptidoglycan is a defining component of bacterial cells, and its biosynthesis is a major target for medically important antibiotics. Recent studies have revealed that antibiotics can kill cells not only by their direct effects on wall synthesis, but also by downstream perturbations of met...
