Mapping the ultrastructural topology of the corynebacterial cell surface
The unique cell envelope of corynebacteria remains poorly understood at the ultrastructural level. This study maps the C. glutamicum cell surface, revealing a patchy S-layer organization and the specific assembly of the PS2 protein, and providing a framework for understanding cell envelopes that contain mycolic acids.
