Revisiting the essentiality of glutamate racemase in Mycobacterium tuberculosis.

Gene - 25 Jan 2015

Morayya Sapna, Awasthy Disha, Yadav Reena, Ambady Anisha, Sharma Umender

Abstract excerpt

Glutamate racemase (MurI) converts l-glutamate into d-glutamate which is an essential component of peptidoglycan in bacteria. The gene encoding glutamate racemase, murI has been shown to be essential for the growth of a number of bacterial species including Escherichia coli. However, in some Gram...
