Identification
Name:GlcNAc-MurNAc-L-alanyl-gamma-D-glutamyl-meso-diaminopimelyl-D-alanine
DescriptionGlcNAc-MurNAc-L-alanyl-gamma-D-glutamyl-meso-diaminopimelyl-D-alanine is an intermediate in peptidoglycan recylcing and biosynthesis. It is a substrate for the enzyme Murein tetrapeptide carboxypeptidase (lcdA) which releases the terminal D-alanine residue from the cytoplasmic tetrapeptide recycling product L-Ala-gamma-D-Glu-meso-Dap-D-Ala. The tripeptides produced by the lcdA reaction can then be reused as peptidoglycan building blocks.

Chemical Taxonomy
Description belongs to the class of organic compounds known as peptides. Peptides are compounds containing an amide derived from two or more amino carboxylic acid molecules (the same or different) by formation of a covalent bond from the carbonyl carbon of one to the nitrogen atom of another.

General function:
Defense mechanisms
Specific function:
Releases the terminal D-alanine residue from the cytoplasmic tetrapeptide recycling product L-Ala-gamma-D-Glu-meso- Dap-D-Ala. To a lesser extent, can also cleave D-Ala from murein derivatives containing the tetrapeptide, i.e. MurNAc-tetrapeptide, UDP-MurNAc-tetrapeptide, GlcNAc-MurNAc-tetrapeptide, and GlcNAc- anhMurNAc-tetrapeptide. Does not act on murein sacculi or cross- linked muropeptides. The tripeptides produced by the lcdA reaction can then be reused as peptidoglycan building blocks; lcdA is thereby involved in murein recycling. Is also essential for viability during stationary phase
