D-ALANYL-D-LACATE LIGASE
Overview
d-alanine-d-lactate ligase from Enterococcus faecium BM4147 is directly, responsible for the biosynthesis of alternate cell-wall precursors in, bacteria, which are resistant to the glycopeptide antibiotic vancomycin., The crystal structure has been determined with data extending to 2.5-A, resolution. This structure shows that the active site has unexpected, interactions and is distinct from previous models for d-alanyl-d-lactate, ligase mechanistic studies. It appears that the preference of the enzyme, for lactate as a ligand over d-alanine could be mediated by electrostatic, effects and/or a hydrogen-bonding network, which principally involve, His-244. The structure of d-alanyl-d-lactate ligase provides a revised, interpretation of the molecular events that lead to vancomycin resistance.
