Structure-based modelling and dynamics of MurM, a <i>Streptococcus pneumoniae</i> penicillin resistance determinant that functions at the cytoplasmic membrane interface

2020-06-18

Abstract excerpt

MurM is an aminoacyl-tRNA dependant ligase that aminoacylates the Lipid II peptidoglycan precursor, in the human pathogen Streptococcus pneumoniae . MurM is required for the generation of branched peptidoglycan precursors enabling indirect cross-links in the peptidoglycan and is found to be essential for penicillin resistance. In this study we have solved the X-ray crystal structure of Staphylococcus aureus FemX...
