FunFam 3914: UDP-N-acetylmuramoyl-L-alanyl-D-glutamate--2,6-dia...

There are 4 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-acetylmuramoyl-L-alanyl-D-glutamate--2,6-diaminopimelate ligase. [EC: 6.3.2.13]
ATP + UDP-N-acetyl-alpha-D-muramoyl-L-alanyl-D-glutamate + meso-2,6- diaminoheptanedioate = ADP + phosphate + UDP-N-acetyl-alpha-D-muramoyl-L- alanyl-D-gamma-glutamyl-meso-2,6-diaminoheptanedioate.
  • Involved in the synthesis of a cell-wall peptide.
  • This enzyme adds diaminopimelate in Gram-negative organisms and in some Gram-positive organisms; in others EC 6.3.2.7 adds lysine instead.
  • It is the amino group of the L-center of the diaminopimelate that is acylated.

UDP-N-acetylmuramoyl-tripeptide--D-alanyl-D-alanine ligase. [EC: 6.3.2.10]
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.

UDP-N-acetylmuramoyl-L-alanyl-D-glutamate--D-lysine ligase. [EC: 6.3.2.37]
ATP + UDP-N-acetyl-alpha-D-muramoyl-L-alanyl-D-glutamate + D-lysine = ADP + phosphate + UDP-N-acetyl-alpha-D-muramoyl-L-alanyl-gamma-D- glutamyl-N(epsilon)-D-lysine.
  • Involved in the synthesis of cell-wall peptidoglycan.
  • The D-lysine is attached to the peptide chain at the N(6) position.
  • The enzyme from Thermotoga maritima also performs the reaction of EC 6.3.2.7.
  • Formerly EC 6.3.2.n1.

UDP-N-acetylmuramoyl-L-alanyl-D-glutamate--L-lysine ligase. [EC: 6.3.2.7]
ATP + UDP-N-acetyl-alpha-D-muramoyl-L-alanyl-D-glutamate + L-lysine = ADP + phosphate + UDP-N-acetyl-alpha-D-muramoyl-L-alanyl-gamma-D- glutamyl-L-lysine.
  • Involved in the synthesis of a cell-wall peptide.
  • This enzyme adds lysine in some Gram-positive organisms; in others and in Gram-negative organisms EC 6.3.2.13 adds 2,6-diaminopimelate instead.
