Ligands: PG4 Gene: lprQ, Rv0483, MTCY20G9.09 (MYCTU) Resources: FirstGlance, OCA, PDBe, RCSB, PDBsum, ProSAT Function [LDT5_MYCTU] Generates 3->3 cross-links in peptidoglycan, catalyzing the cleavage of the mDap(3)-D-Ala(4) bond of a tetrapeptide donor stem and the formation of a bond between the carbonyl of mDap(3) of the donor stem and the side chain of mDap(3) of the acceptor stem. Is specific for donor substrates containing a stem tetrapeptide since it cannot use pentapeptide stems. Publication Abstract from PubMed Targeting Mycobacterium tuberculosis peptidoglycans with beta-lactam antibiotics represents a strategy to address increasing resistance to antitubercular drugs. beta-Lactams inhibit peptidoglycan synthases such as l,d-transpeptidases, a group of carbapenem-sensitive enzymes that stabilize peptidoglycans through 3 --> 3 cross-links. M. tuberculosis encodes five l,d-transpeptidases (LdtMt1-5), of which LdtMt3 is one of the less understood. Herein, we structurally characterized the apo and faropenem-acylated forms of LdtMt3 at 1.3 and 1.8 A resolution, respectively. These structures revealed a fold and catalytic diad similar to those of other LdtsMt enzymes, supporting its involvement in transpeptidation reactions despite divergences in active site size and charges. The LdtMt3-faropenem structure indicated that faropenem is degraded after Cys-246 acylation, and possibly only a beta-OH-butyrate or an acetyl group (C2H3O) covalently attached to the enzyme remains, an observation that strongly supports the notion that LdtMt3 is inactivated by beta-lactams. Docking simulations with intact beta-lactams predicted key LdtMt3 residues that interact with these antibiotics. We also characterized the heat of acylation involved in the binding and reaction of LdtMt3 for ten beta-lactams belonging to four different classes, and imipenem had the highest inactivation constant. This work provides key insights into the structure, binding mechanisms, and degradation of beta-lactams by LdtMt3, which may be useful for the development of additional beta-lactams with potential antitubercular activity.
