The Staphylococcus aureus esterase FmtA is essential for wall teichoic acid D-alanylation

ABSTRACT Staphylococcus aureus teichoic acids are anionic glycopolymers covalently attached to peptidoglycan (wall teichoic acids, WTAs) or anchored to the phospholipid membrane (lipoteichoic acids, LTAs). The post-synthetic addition of D-alanine (D-Ala) residues to these polymers modulates surface...
