GlcNAc-1,6-anhydro-MurNAc moiety affords unusual glycosyl acceptor that terminates peptidoglycan elongation
Peptidoglycan (PG), an essential exoskeletal polymer in bacteria, is a well-known antibiotic target. PG polymerization requires the action of bacterial transglycosylases (TGases), which couple the incoming glycosyl acceptor to the donor. Interfering with the TGase activity can interrupt the PG assem...
