Enzyme Information

6.3.2.10
UDP-N-acetylmuramoyl-tripeptide--D-alanyl-D-alanine ligase.
based on mapping to UniProt Q9WY78
ATP + UDP-N-acetylmuramoyl-L-alanyl-gamma-D-glutamyl-L-lysine + D-alanyl- D-alanine = ADP + phosphate + UDP-N-acetylmuramoyl-L-alanyl-gamma-D- glutamyl-L-lysyl-D-alanyl-D-alanine.
-!- Involved with EC 6.3.2.4, EC 6.3.2.7 or EC 6.3.2.13, EC 6.3.2.8 and EC 6.3.2.9 in the synthesis of a cell-wall peptide. -!- Also catalyzes the reaction when the C-terminal residue of the tripeptide is meso-2,4-diaminoheptanedioate (acylated at its L-center), linking the D-Ala--D-Ala to the carboxy group of the L-center. -!- Formerly EC 6.3.2.15.
