'''Enoylpyruvate transferase''' (MurA) catalyzes the ligation of phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP) to UDP-N-acetylglucosamine (UNAG). The pyruvate moiety makes the linker between the glycan and peptide portion of peptidoglycans. Thus MurA is essential for the biosynthesis of bacterial cell walls and is a target for antibiotics. MurA is composed of catalytic domain and C-terminal domain. | '''Enoylpyruvate transferase''' (MurA) catalyzes the ligation of phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP) to UDP-N-acetylglucosamine (UNAG).
