Modular structure of S. aureus peptidoglycan hydrolases. S. aureus peptidoglycan hydrolases have a modular structure. The different domains that make up these enzymes include catalytic domains, such as the amidase, glucosaminidase, CHAP, M23 peptidase and/or lytic transglycosylase domains. In addition, peptidoglycan hydrolases contain signal peptides, transmembrane domains and/or cell wall binding domains (e.g. LysM, GW) for subcellular localization.
