Donor-delivered cell wall hydrolases facilitate nanotube penetration into recipient bacteria
Bacteria can produce membranous nanotubes that mediate contact-dependent exchange of molecules between bacterial cells. Here, Baidya et al. show that cell-wall remodelling enzymes from Bacillus subtilis are required for efficient nanotube extrusion and penetration, and can be delivered to other bact...
