Identification and characterization of archaeal pseudomurein biosynthesis genes through pangenomics

ABSTRACT The peptidoglycan (PG, or murein) is a mesh-like structure, which is made of glycan polymers connected by short peptides and surrounds the cell membrane of nearly all bacterial species. In contrast, there is no PG counterpart that would be universally found in Archaea but rather various pol...
