Abstract

ABSTRACT Few therapeutic alternatives remain for the treatment of infections due to multiresistant Mycobacterium abscessus . Here we show that the peptidoglycans of the “rough” and “smooth” morphotypes contain predominantly 3→3 cross-links generated by l , d -transpeptidases, indicating that these enzymes are attractive targets for the development of efficient drugs.
