Crystallographic Study of Peptidoglycan Biosynthesis Enzyme MurD: Domain Movement Revisited.
The biosynthetic pathway of peptidoglycan, an essential component of bacterial cell wall, is a well-recognized target for antibiotic development. Peptidoglycan precursors are synthesized in the bacterial cytosol by various enzymes including the ATP-hydrolyzing Mur ligases, which catalyze the stepwis...
