FunFam 2: UDP-N-acetylmuramate--L-alanyl-gamma-D-glutamyl-me...

There are 1 EC terms in this cluster

Please note: EC annotations are assigned to the full protein sequence rather than individual protein domains. Since a given protein can contain multiple domains, it is possible that some of the annotations below come from additional domains that occur in the same protein, but have been classified elsewhere in CATH.

Note: The search results have been sorted with the annotations that are found most frequently at the top of the list. The results can be filtered by typing text into the search box at the top of the table.

EC Term Annotations Evidence
UDP-N-acetylmuramate L-alanyl-gamma-D-glutamyl-meso-2,6- diaminoheptanedioate ligase. [EC: 6.3.2.45]
ATP + UDP-N-acetyl-alpha-D-muramate + L-alanyl-gamma-D-glutamyl-meso-2,6- diaminoheptanedioate = ADP + phosphate + UDP-N-acetylmuramoyl-L-alanyl- gamma-D-glutamyl-meso-2,6-diaminoheptanedioate.
  • The enzyme catalyzes the reincorporation into peptidoglycan of the tripeptide L-alanyl-gamma-D-glutamyl-2,6-meso-diaminoheptanedioate released during the maturation and constant remodeling of this bacterial cell wall polymer that occur during cell growth and division.
  • The enzyme can also use the tetrapeptide L-alanyl-gamma-D-glutamyl- meso-2,6-diaminoheptanedioyl-D-alanine or the pentapeptide L-alanyl- gamma-D-glutamyl-meso-2,6-diaminoheptanedioyl-D-alanyl-D-alanine in vivo and in vitro.
