Bacterial cell enlargement requires control of cell wall stiffness mediated by peptidoglycan hydrolases

Most bacterial cells are enclosed in a single macromolecule of the cell wall polymer, peptidoglycan, which is required for shape determination and maintenance of viability, while peptidoglycan biosynthesis is an important antibiotic target. It is hypothesized that cellular enlargement requires regio...
