Mechanism of lateral cell-wall expansion at a constant diameter in Bacillus subtilis
Abstract In Escherichia coli, lateral cell-wall expansion during growth occurs by cross-linking of new glycan strands to the existing peptidoglycan network. However, it is unclear whether the same mechanism applies to other rod-shaped bacteria. Here, we use cell imaging and mass spectrometry analysi...
