Crystal structure of diaminopimelate epimerase from Escherichia coli

Template:ABSTRACT PUBMED 23426375

Function

[DAPF_ECOLI] Catalyzes the stereoinversion of LL-2,6-diaminoheptanedioate (L,L-DAP) to meso-diaminoheptanedioate (meso-DAP), a precursor of L-lysine and an essential component of the bacterial peptidoglycan. Only accepts DAP isomers with the L configuration.[1] [2] [3]

About this Structure

4ijz is a 2 chain structure with sequence from Escherichia coli k-12. Full crystallographic information is available from OCA.
