Penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs) catalyze the transpeptidase reaction involved in peptidoglycan synthesis and are covalently inhibited by the ␤-lactam antibiotics. In a previous work we have focused on acylation efficiency measurements of various Streptococcus pneumoniae PBP2x\* mutants to study t
