The S-layer homology domains of certain proteins have been shown to bind specifically to terminal residues of cell wall polysaccharides, facilitating the attachment of S-layers to the bacterial ...

The enzymes produced by the phage gradually weaken the bacterial cell wall and eventually the bacterial cells lyse, releasing on average 100-200 phage progeny into the surrounding environment. Due to ...

Researchers focused on the material, which represents the "house" of biofilm bacteria: the matrix of extracellular polymeric ...
