Wall Teichoic Acid Function, Biosynthesis, and Inhibition

Off the wall: Wall teichoic acids (WTAs) are negatively charged glycopolymers found in dense arrays on the surface of Gram‐positive bacteria. WTAs have profound effects on the physiology of Gram‐positive organisms, and impact everything from cation homeostasis to antibiotic susceptibility to surviva...

description Off the wall: Wall teichoic acids (WTAs) are negatively charged glycopolymers found in dense arrays on the surface of Gram‐positive bacteria. WTAs have profound effects on the physiology of Gram‐positive organisms, and impact everything from cation homeostasis to antibiotic susceptibility to survival in a host. This review summarizes recent advances made toward understanding WTA function, biosynthesis and inhibition.
