Structural difference between walls from hemispherical caps and partial septa of Bacillus subtilis

Structural difference between walls from hemispherical caps and partial septa of Bacillus subtilis

D P Fan et al. J Bacteriol. 1973 May.

Abstract

Walls from partial septa of Bacillus subtilis bacteria are more sensitive than end walls to digestion by B. subtilis autolytic amidase. This result indicates that, after synthesis, B. subtilis septal walls are modified to an amidase-resistant form.
