description | The tripeptide L-ananyl-gamma-D-glutamyl-meso-diaminopimelic acid is efficiently re-cycled during the formation of bacterial cell wall murein. Murein peptide ligase (also known as UDP-N-acetylmuramate:L-alanyl-gamma-D-glutamyl-meso-diaminopimelate ligase) is an essential enzyme in this process which links the tripeptide to UDP-N-acetylmuramate []. |
