<i>Listeria monocytogenes</i> Wall Teichoic Acid Glycosylation Promotes Surface Anchoring of Virulence Factors, Resistance to Antimicrobial Peptides, and Decreased Susceptibility to Antibiotics
The cell wall of <i>Listeria monocytogenes</i> (<i>Lm</i>)<i>, </i>a major intracellular foodborne bacterial pathogen,<i> </i>comprises a thick peptidoglycan layer that serves as a scaffold for glycopolymers such as wall teichoic acids (WTAs). WTAs con...
