Distinct Spatiotemporal Dynamics of Peptidoglycan Synthesis between <italic toggle="yes">Mycobacterium smegmatis</italic> and <italic toggle="yes">Mycobacterium tuberculosis</italic>
ABSTRACT Peptidoglycan (PG), a polymer cross-linked by d-amino acid-containing peptides, is an essential component of the bacterial cell wall. We found that a fluorescent d-alanine analog (FDAA) incorporates chiefly at one of the two poles in Mycobacterium smegmatis but that polar dominance varies a...
