Research Papers that Mention the Interaction
“ Penicillin inhibits the incorporation of D- and L-alanine N-acetylglucosamine at concentrations in excess of 10 mug of penicillin per ml; however, minicells are insensitive to penicillin-induced lysis.”
Synthesis of cell envelope components by anucleate cells (minicells) of Bacillus subtilis“Rather unexpectedly, penicillin also inhibited markedly, though incompletely, the incorporation of GlcNAc and of MurNAc-pentapeptide into the preexisting peptidoglycan.”
“ Penicillin not only strongly inhibits release of D-alanine (98% at 1 mug/ml), but also markedly inhibits incorporation of acetylglucosamine and N-acetylmuramic acid-pentapeptide into the preformed cell-wall peptidoglycan.”
