Abstract

Abstract: Over the years, peptidoglycan hydrolases are considered destructive roles, for example the phage lysis host use them to release the virus particles, some bacterias dissolve their competitors, etc. But in recent years, with the continuous research depth found：in cell growth and metabolism process, its positive roles are more important. This paper reviewed the functions of peptidoglycan hydrolase in Bacillus throughout the cell life course, including cell growth, division, motility, sporulation and spore germination, protein secretion, information transmission, innate immunity and other aspects, laid the theoretical foundation for the study of peptidoglycan hydrolases and cell metabolism in Bacillus and the other microorganism.

Key words: Bacillus, peptidoglycan, peptidoglycan hydrolase, functions
