The protein

Catalyzed reaction/ biological activity

  • hydrolysis of peptidoglycan (linkage between N-acetylmuramic acid and N-acetylglucosamine and bond between D-γ-glutamate and meso-diaminopimelic acid) PubMed
  • degradation of gamma-polyglutamic acid PubMed
  • Protein family

  • nlpC/p60 family (according to Swiss-Prot)
  • Domains

  • N-terminal domain is an N-acetylmuramidase that cleaves the linkage between N-acetylmuramic acid and N-acetylglucosamine PubMed
  • C-terminal D,L-endopeptidase domain (NlpC/P60 domain) PubMed, cleaves the bond between D-γ-glutamate and meso-diaminopimelic acid PubMed
  • Effectors of protein activity

  • both enzymatic activities are inhibited by interaction with IseA PubMed
  • Structure

  • 4FDY (from Staphylococcus aureus, 42% identity) PubMed
  • Localization

  • secreted (with signal peptide) PubMed
  • may be a lipoprotein, but the lipid anchor is not required for function PubMed
  • Expression and Regulation
