Secreted cell wall DL-endopeptidase; The C-terminal part of CwlO shows a cell wall hydrolytic DL- endopeptidase activity; Belongs to the peptidase C40 family.

Putative undecaprenyl-phosphate N-acetylgalactosaminyl-1-phosphate transferase; Autolysins are cell wall hydrolases involved in some important biological processes such as cell separation, cell-wall turnover, competence for genetic transformation, formation of the flagella - in particular of its basal body - and sporulation. Has a high affinity for teichoic acid-endowed peptidoglycan. LytC is required for efficient swarming motility but not at the level of cell separation or flagellum biosynthesis. Rather, LytC appears to be important for proper flagellar function.

Secreted cell wall DL-endopeptidase; The C-terminal part of CwlO shows a cell wall hydrolytic DL- endopeptidase activity; Belongs to the peptidase C40 family.

Exported N-acetylglucosaminidase (major autolysin) (CWBP90); Cell wall hydrolase not involved in cell autolysis, competence, sporulation or germination. It hydrolyzes the beta-1,4 glycan bond between the N-acetylglucosaminyl and the N-acetylmuramoyl residues in the glycan chain.

Secreted cell wall DL-endopeptidase; The C-terminal part of CwlO shows a cell wall hydrolytic DL- endopeptidase activity; Belongs to the peptidase C40 family.

Cell wall hydrolase; Cell wall hydrolase that cleaves gamma-D-glutamate-meso- diaminopimelate bonds in peptidoglycan (By similarity). Seems to play a role in cell separation during vegetative growth.
