Uridine-Diphosphate-N-Acetyl-muramyl-L-Alanyl-D-Glutamate: Meso-2, 6-Diaminopimelate Ligase Activity in Extracts of Basillus subtilis, Streptococcus bovis and Enterococcus faecium

 

Summary

 

    Uridine-diphosphate-N-acetylmuramyl-L-alanyl-D-glutamate: meso-2, 6-diaminopimelate li-gase activity was found in extracts of B. subtilis, S. bovis, E. faecium. LW-N-acetylmura-myl-/--alanyl-£>-glutamate: meso-2, 6-diaminopimelate ligase from B. subtilis was purified by gel-filtration and ion-exchange chromatography. The molecular weight of enzyme as determined by gel-filtration is 120000.
