The ability of bacteria to recycle exogenous amino acid-based peptides and amino sugars for peptidoglycan biosynthesis was extensively investigated using optical imaging. In particular, fluorescent AeK-NBD was effectively utilized to study the peptidoglycan recycling pathway in Gram-negative bacteri...
