Structure of LdtMt2, an l,d-transpeptidase from Mycobacterium tuberculosis
The transpeptidase LtdMt2 catalyzes the formation of the (3-3) cross-links characteristic of the peptidoglycan layer in the Mycobacterium tuberculosis cell wall. Bioinformatics analysis suggests that the extramembrane part of the enzyme consists of three domains: two smaller domains (denoted as A and B domains) and a transpeptidase domain (the C domain) at the C-terminus. The crystal structures...
متن کاملStructural basis for the inhibition of Mycobacterium tuberculosis l,d-transpeptidase by meropenem, a drug effective against extensively drug-resistant strains
Difficulty in the treatment of tuberculosis and growing drug resistance in Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) are a global health issue. Carbapenems inactivate L,D-transpeptidases; meropenem, when administered with clavulanate, showed in vivo activity against extensively drug-resistant Mtb strains. LdtMt2 (Rv2518c), one of two functional L,D-transpeptidases in Mtb, is predominantly expressed over...
متن کاملCrystal structure of Bacillus anthracis transpeptidase enzyme CapD.
Bacillus anthracis elaborates a poly-gamma-d-glutamic acid capsule that protects bacilli from phagocytic killing during infection. The enzyme CapD generates amide bonds with peptidoglycan cross-bridges to anchor capsular material within the cell wall envelope of B. anthracis. The capsular biosynthetic pathway is essential for virulence during anthrax infections and can be targeted for anti-infe...
متن کاملSimulating the inhibition reaction of Mycobacterium tuberculosis L,D-transpeptidase 2 by carbapenems.
A theoretical free energy study describes the inactivation of a new tuberculosis target, the l,d-transpeptidase 2 enzyme. A new reaction mechanism of two carbapenem inhibitors is proposed and their molecular features are determined using QM/MM and PMF approaches. The theoretical findings with the new proposed mechanism agree in principle with the experimental data.
