Method: X-ray diffraction, Resolution 1.75Å Ligands: MG Resources: FirstGlance, OCA, PDBe, RCSB, PDBsum, ProSAT Function LDCA_ECOLI 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.
