FunctionMURD_ECOLI Cell wall formation. Catalyzes the addition of glutamate to the nucleotide precursor UDP-N-acetylmuramoyl-L-alanine (UMA).[HAMAP-Rule:MF_00639] Evolutionary Conservation![]() Check, as determined by ConSurfDB. You may read the explanation of the method and the full data available from ConSurf. Publication Abstract from PubMedWe have designed, synthesized, and evaluated 5-benzylidenerhodanine- and 5-benzylidenethiazolidine-2,4-dione-based compounds as inhibitors of bacterial enzyme MurD with E. coli IC(50) in the range 45-206 muM. The high-resolution crystal structure of MurD in complex with (R,Z)-2-(3-[{4-([2,4-dioxothiazolidin-5-ylidene]methyl)phenylamino}methyl) benzamido)pentanedioic acid [(R)-32] revealed details of the binding mode of the inhibitor within the active site and provides a good foundation for structure-based design of a novel generation of MurD inhibitors.
