Bacteria have the natural ability to install protective post-synthetic modifications onto its bacterial peptidoglycan (PG), the coat woven into bacterial cell wall. Peptidoglycan O-acetyltransferase B (PatB) catalyzes the O-acetylation of PG in Gram (–) bacteria, which aids in bacterial survival, as it prevents autolysins such as lysozyme from cleaving the PG. We explored the mechanistic details of PatB’s acetylation function and determined that PatB has substrate specificity for bioorthgonal short N-acetyl cysteamine (SNAc) donors. A variety of functionality including azides and alkynes were installed on tri-N-acetylglucosamine (NAG)3, a PG mimic, as well as PG isolated from various Gram (+) and Gram (–) bacterial species. The bioorthogonal modifications protect the isolated PG against lysozyme degradation in vitro. We further demonstrate that this post-synthetic modification of PG can be extended to use click chemistry to fluorescently label the mature PG in whole bacterial cells of Bacillus subtilis. Modifying PG post-synthetically can aid in the development of antibiotics and immune modulators by expanding the understanding of how PG is processed by lytic enzymes.
