SPOR Proteins Are Required for Functionality of Class A Penicillin-Binding Proteins in <named-content content-type="genus-species">Escherichia coli</named-content>

ABSTRACT Sporulation-related repeat (SPOR) domains are present in many bacterial cell envelope proteins and are known to bind peptidoglycan. Escherichia coli contains four SPOR proteins, DamX, DedD, FtsN, and RlpA, of which FtsN is essential for septal peptidoglycan synthesis. DamX and DedD may also...
