Primary Drug Target
Name | Penicillin-binding protein 1B | Gene Name | mrcB | Synonyms | PBP-1b; PBP1b; Murein polymerase[Includes: Penicillin-insensitive transglycosylase; EC 2.4.1.129; Peptidoglycan glycosyltransferase; Peptidoglycan TGase; Penicillin- sensitive transpeptidase; EC 3.4.-.-; DD-transpeptidase] | General Function | Cell wall/membrane/envelope biogenesis | Specific Function | 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) | Pathway | map00550 Peptidoglycan biosynthesis | Reaction | [GlcNAc-(1->4)-Mur2Ac(oyl-L-Ala-gamma-D-Glu-L-Lys-D-Ala-D-Ala)]n- $diphosphoundecaprenol + GlcNAc-(1->4)-Mur2Ac(oyl-L-Ala-gamma-D-Glu- $L-Lys-D-Ala-D-Ala)-diphosphoundecaprenol = [GlcNAc-(1->4)- $Mur2Ac(oyl-L-Ala-gamma-D-Glu-L-Lys-D-Ala-D-Ala)]n+1- $diphosphoundecaprenol + undecaprenyl diphosphate |
