D-Alanine (D-Ala) is a ubiquitous constituent of bacterial cell walls. Assays for D-Ala can be used to investigate several aspects of cell wall biosynthesis and the effects of antibiotics on this process.
The extracytoplasmic folding of secreted proteins in Gram-positive bacteria is influenced by the microenvironment of the compartment into which they are translocated, namely the negatively charged matrix of the cell wall polymers. In this compartment, the PrsA lipoprotein facilitates correct post-translocational folding or prevents misfolding of secreted proteins. In this study, a secretion mutant of B. subtilis (prsA3) encoding a defective PrsA protein was mutagenized and screened for restored secretion of the AmyQ alpha-amylase.
