This structure supersedes the now removed PDB entry 3fwm. Full crystallographic information is available from OCA. For a guided tour on the structure components use FirstGlance. Method: X-ray diffraction, Resolution 2.161Å Ligands: M0E Resources: FirstGlance, OCA, PDBe, RCSB, PDBsum, ProSAT Function PBPB_ECOLI Cell wall formation. Synthesis of cross-linked peptidoglycan from the lipid intermediates. The enzyme has a penicillin-insensitive transglycosylase N-terminal domain (formation of linear glycan strands) and a penicillin-sensitive transpeptidase C-terminal domain (cross-linking of the peptide subunits). Publication Abstract from PubMed Drug-resistant bacteria have caused serious medical problems in recent years, and the need for new antibacterial agents is undisputed. Transglycosylase, a multidomain membrane protein essential for cell wall synthesis, is an excellent target for the development of new antibiotics. Here, we determined the X-ray crystal structure of the bifunctional transglycosylase penicillin-binding protein 1b (PBP1b) from Escherichia coli in complex with its inhibitor moenomycin to 2.16-A resolution. In addition to the transglycosylase and transpeptidase domains, our structure provides a complete visualization of this important antibacterial target, and reveals a domain for protein-protein interaction and a transmembrane helix domain essential for substrate binding, enzymatic activity, and membrane orientation.
