| Description | This family of proteins includes enzymes with roles in bacterial cell wall dynamics and integrity. Members are involved in processes such as peptidoglycan hydrolysis, which is crucial for cell wall lysis, cell viability, and various stages of bacterial life cycle including sporulation and germination. Some proteins in this family may also be associated with pathogenicity due to their involvement in toxin release. Additionally, certain members may have regulatory functions that are influenced by protease activity and can affect cell wall-binding properties. Another possible function within this family is the formation of ionophores, which are molecules that can transport ions across lipid membranes, potentially impacting cellular homeostasis. | Name | Bacterial Cell Wall Dynamics Protein |
