General Information

General Information Comment Organism
physiological function proteins YpfP and LtaA, involved in glycolipid production, and LtaS, required for lipoteichoic acid backbone synthesis, interact with one another. All three proteins also interact with numerous cell division and peptidoglycan synthesis proteins. Lipoteichoic acid backbone synthesis proceeds in Staphylococcus aureus at the division site in coordination with cell division, while glycolipid synthesis takes place throughout the membrane Staphylococcus aureus
