The lytic polysaccharide monooxygenase CbpD promotes Pseudomonas aeruginosa virulence in systemic infection

The Pseudomonas aeruginosa lytic polysaccharide monooxygenase CbpD, prevalent in clinical isolates, has been proposed to act as a virulence factor. Here, the authors combine structural work, in silico simulations, enzymatic activity and in vitro and in vivo experiments to further delineate the role...
