Peptidoglycan (PG) is a ubiquitous structural polysaccharide of the bacterial cell wall,
essential in preserving cell integrity by withstanding turgor pressure. Any change that affects …

To withstand their internal turgor pressure and external threats, most bacteria have a
protective peptidoglycan (PG) cell wall. The growth of this PG polymer relies on autolysins …

Highlights•Recently developed innovative methods for analysis of peptidoglycan are
outlined.•New tools enable high throughput, in vivo and single-cell peptidoglycan …

A superbly illustrated review presents the current molecular-level understanding of the key
structural complexes of the Gram-positive bacterium using Streptococcus pneumoniae as …

Elucidating the chemistry of wine would help defining its quality, chemical and sensory
characteristics and optimise the wine-making processes. High-performance liquid …

Most bacteria cells are protected by a peptidoglycan cell wall. Defining the chemical
structure of the peptidoglycan has been instrumental to characterize cell wall associated …

Shifted peak positions in 1H-nuclear magnetic resonance (1H-NMR) spectroscopy of wine
samples are inevitably occurring mainly due to variations in the sample matrix, which …

Motivation Metabolomics is a data analysis and interpretation field aiming to study functions
of small molecules within the organism. Consequently Metabolomics requires researchers in …

In the present work, Principal coordinate analysis (PCoA) is introduced to develop a robust
model to classify the chromatographic data sets of peptidoglycan sample. PcoA captures the …

Most bacteria are encased into a load-bearing rigid framework, the cell wall (CW). The
peptidoglycan (PG) layer, a network composed of glycan strands cross-linked by stem …
