A lipoprotein allosterically activates the CwlD amidase during Clostridioides difficile spore formation.

Spore-forming pathogens like Clostridioides difficile depend on germination to initiate infection. During gemination, spores must degrade their cortex layer, which is a thick, protective layer of modified peptidoglycan.
