Function
A0A125HFC0_9BURK Plays a role in peptidoglycan recycling by cleaving the terminal beta-1,4-linked N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc) from peptide-linked peptidoglycan fragments, giving rise to free GlcNAc, anhydro-N-acetylmuramic acid and anhydro-N-acetylmuramic acid-linked peptides.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_00364][SAAS:SAAS00634279]
Publication Abstract from PubMed
The development of a potent mechanism-based inactivator of NagZ, an enzyme critical to the production of inducible AmpC beta-lactamase in Gram-negative bacteria, is presented. This inactivator significantly reduces MIC values for important beta-lactams against a clinically relevant strain of Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
