Enterococcal cell wall remodelling underpins pathogenesis via the release of the Enteroccocal Polysaccharide Antigen (EPA)

Robert E Smith, Bartosz J. Michno, Lowrence Rene Christena…·Stéphane Mesnage

This paper identifies AtlE, an N-acetylmuramidase essential for virulence in E. faecalis, showing its role in cell wall remodelling and immune evasion via the release of EPA-containing fragments.
