| description | Alanine racemase () plays a role in providing the D-alanine required for cell wall biosynthesis by isomerising L-alanine to D-alanine.The molecular structure of alanine racemase from Bacillus stearothermophilus (Geobacillus stearothermophilus) was determined by X-ray crystallography to a resolution of 1.9 A []. The alanine racemase monomer is composed of two domains, an eight-stranded alpha/beta barrel at the N terminus, and a C-terminal domain essentially composed of β-strand. This entry represents the C-terminal domain. |
