This volume is based on a FEMS Symposium entitled "Bacterial Growth
and Lysis: Metabolism and Structure of the Bacterial Sacculus" held
at the Monastery of Lluc (Mallorca, Spain) on 5-10 April, 1992. The
goals of the symposium were to assess the present state of
knowledge on the structure and physiology of the bacterial murein
sacculus, and to develop new hypotheses and strategies to promote
further development of the field. Consequently, the contributions
compiled in this volume include broadly different approaches, from
the introduction of new analytical methods to the presentation of
provocative models for cell wall growth and division. Structural,
biochemical, and genetic aspects are widely covered with special
emphasis on the enzymology and regulation of murein hydrolases
(autolysins). Comprehensive reviews on bacterial S layers and yeast
cell walls are included to stimulate conceptual cross-feeding with
these closely related topics. We believe that this book will
provide the reader with a useful and up-to-date review of the
topic. We would feel deeply rewarded by any positive influence this
book may have on the future progress of the field, whereby all the
scientific credit for it should be given to the authors of the
excellent contributions presented."
