L-Ala-D/L-Glu epimerase

Gene:

ycjG Enzyme: EC 5.1.1.20 This enzyme has known catalytic activity involved in reaction: L-alanyl-L-glutamate = L-alanyl-D-glutamate

Organism:

Escherichia coli (strain K12)

Synonyms:

ycjH

Uniprot:

P51981go to UniProt

Biological function:

Catalyzes the epimerization of L-Ala-D-Glu to L-Ala-L-Glu and has a role in the recycling of the murein peptide, of which L-Ala-D-Glu is a component. Is also able to catalyze the reverse reaction and the epimerization of all the L-Ala-X dipeptides, except L-Ala-L-Arg, L-Ala-L-Lys and L-Ala-L-Pro. Is also active with L-Gly-L-Glu, L-Phe-L-Glu, and L-Ser-L-Glu, but not with L-Glu-L-Glu, L-Lys-L-Glu, L-Pro-L-Glu, L-Lys-L-Ala, ... [show more]go to UniProt
