N-Acetyl-D-muramoate |

| Description: | N-acetyl-D-muramoate is a member of the chemical class known as Sugar Acids and Derivatives. These are compounds containing a saccharide unit which bears a carboxylic acid group. UDP-N-acetylmuramic acid (UDP-MurNAc) is a precursor for peptidoglycan biosynthesis in bacteria. (PMID 14659546) Peptidoglycan is the major constituent of the cell wall, which is comprised of backbone repeats of N-acetylglucosamine (NAG) and N-acetylmuramic acid (NAM). (PMID 18700763) UDP-N-acetylmuramic acid (UDP-MurNAc) is a potent inhibitor of MurA (enolpyruvyl-UDP-GlcNAc synthase). (PMID 15751977) The bacterial cell wall is a polymer consisting of alternating N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc) and N-acetylmuramic acid (MurNAc) units, cross-linked via peptides appended to MurNAc. (PMID 12369847). The peptidoglycan synthesis pathway starts at the cytoplasm, where in six steps the peptidoglycan precursor a UDP-N-acetylmuramoyl-pentapeptide is synthesized. This precursor is then attached to the memberane acceptor all-trans-undecaprenyl phosphate, generating a N-acetylmuramoyl-pentapeptide-diphosphoundecaprenol, also known as lipid I. Another transferase then adds UDP-N-acetyl-alpha-D-glucosamine, yielding the complete monomeric unit a lipid , also known as lipid . This final lipid intermediate is transferred through the membrane. The peptidoglycan monomers are then polymerized on the outside surface by glycosyltransferases, which form the linear glycan chains, and transpeptidases, which catalyze the formation of peptide crosslinks. |
