SYSTEMATIC NAMEIUBMB Comments
D-alanine:(R)-lactate ligase (ADP-forming)The product of this enzyme, the depsipeptide D-alanyl-(R)-lactate, can be incorporated into the peptidoglycan pentapeptide instead of the usual D-alanyl-D-alanine dipeptide, which is formed by EC 6.3.2.4, D-alanine---D-alanine ligase. The resulting peptidoglycan does not bind the glycopeptide antibiotics vancomycin and teicoplanin, conferring resistance on the bacteria.

GENERAL INFORMATIONORGANISM UNIPROT ACCESSION NO.COMMENTARYLITERATURE
physiological functionEnterococcus faecium-resistance to glycopeptides in Enterococcus faecium BM4416 is due to synthesis of late peptidoglycan precursors ending in D-Ala–D-Lac. Strain BM4416 mainly produces UDP-MurNAc-pentadepsipeptide, 69%, terminating in D-Ala–D-Lac, UDP-MurNAc-tetrapeptide, 24%, and UDP-MurNAc-tripeptide, 7%. No significant amounts of UDP-MurNAc-pentapeptide are found. Constitutive resistance is encoded by a vanD operon closely related to that of Enterococcus faecium BM4339 and also located in the chromosome. Both VanD-type strains produce an inactivated D-Ala:D-Ala ligase due to an insertion in the ddl gene649336
physiological functionEnterococcus faecium-the vanD gene encodes a D-Ala:D-Lac ligase related to VanA and VanB which is not transferable by conjugation. It renders the cells constitutively resistant to vancomycin with a minimum inhibitory concentration MIC of 0.064 mg/ml and to low levels of teicoplanin, MIC 0.004 mg/ml. Cytoplasmic peptidoglycan precursors that accumulate are mainly UDP-MurNAc-pentadepsipeptide, UDP-MurNAc-tetrapeptide, and UDP-MurNAc-tripeptide. The large proportion of UDP-MurNAc-pentadepsipeptide indicates that the mechanism of vancomycin resistance in BM4339 is similar to that in VanA and VanB strains. The presence of UDP-MurNAc-tripeptide implies that the rate of synthesis of D-Ala–D-Ala or D-Ala–D-Lac substrates is limiting707160
physiological functionEnterococcus faecium-Enterococcus faecium 10/96A from Brazil is resistant to vancomycin with a minimum inhibitory concentration MIC of 0.256 mg/ml. Cytoplasmic peptidoglycan precursors from cells of strain 10/96A grown in the presence or absence of 0.004 mg of vancomycin/ml contain in both cases 95% UDP-MurNAc-pentadepsipeptide, 3% UDPMurNAc-pentapeptide, and 2% UDP-MurNAc-tetrapeptide, supporting the role of VanD4 as a D-Ala-D-Lac ligase and indicating that glycopeptide resistance is expressed constitutively707162
physiological functionEnterococcus faecium-in the presence of vancomycin, production of the VanB D-Ala:D-Lac ligase is induced, which overcomes the defect in the synthesis of peptidoglycan precursors ending in D-Ala–D-Ala due to a lack of functional Ddl D-Ala-D-Ala ligase. Vancomycin-dependent strain BM4660 synthesizes mainly UDP-MurNAc-pentadepsipeptide, 44%, whereas large amounts of UDP-MurNActripeptide, 39%, and small amounts of pentapeptide, 12%, and tetrapeptide, 5%, are present. The presence of tripeptide in large quantity suggests that the VanB ligase may not be sufficiently active to synthesize D-Ala–D-Lac as rapidly as tripeptide is produced707164
physiological functionEnterococcus faecium-VanA is a D-alanine:D-alanine ligase of altered substrate specificity. VanA catalyzes ester bond formation between D-alanine and the D-hydroxy acid products of VanH, the best substrate being D-2-hydroxybutyrate. The VanA product D-alanyl-D-2-hydroxybutyrate can then be incorporated into the UDPMurNAc-pentapeptide peptidoglycan precursor707463
evolutionStaphylococcus aureus-the two amino acid substitutions Q260K/A283E via exchange at nucleotide positions 778 and 848, respectively, in VRSA-9 Ddl lead to the ability to synthesize precursors ending in D-Ala-D-Lac (72%) and D-Ala-D-Ala (21%) in the absence of vancomycin. The VRSA-9 Ddl has an altered D-Ala:D-Ala ligase activity relative to that of VRSA-6 with a Km for D-Ala of 2 mM at subsite 1 and 240 mM at subsite 2. The binding affinity for D-Ala at subsite 2 is 14fold lower than that of VRSA-6. The residues at nucleotide positions 778 and 848 are not conserved among D-Ala:DAla ligases and do not interact directly with the substrates. VRSA-9 Ddl shows the importance of conformational changes in the dimer interface which can indirectly affect the topology of the active site715371
additional informationBacillus subtilis-acquisition of vancomycin resistance affects expression of WalRK and PhoPR regulon genes in the phosphate-limited state. Genetic regulation of vancomycin resistance involving also VanA, detailed overview716269

additional information?-Enterococcus faecium-reaction proceeds via rapid and reversible formation of the enzyme intermediate D-Ala-phosphate. Reversible cleavage of ATP to ADP and D-Ala-phosphate and reformation of ATP are detectable. D-Ala-phosphate is a common intermediate that serves as the electrophilic substrate in the condensation with D-Lac as nucleophilic cosubstrate708102---
additional information?-Leuconostoc mesenteroides-D-alanine:D-alanine (D-lactate) ligase (ADP) from Leuconostoc mesenteroides synthesizes the depsipeptide, D-alanyl-D-lactate, in addition to D-alanyl-D-alanine, when D-alanine and D-lactate are incubated simultaneously. Structure of bound D-alanine and D-lactate at the active subsites and substrate orientations, overview. With D-lactate a bifurcated H-bond from Arg301 to the R-OH of D-lactate may account for its orientation and nucleophile activation. This orientation is observed when the guanidino side chain of this residue is flexible. D-Alanine adopts an orientation that utilizes H-bonding to water 2882 and the D-alanyl phosphate in subsite 1. Both of these orientations provide mechanisms of deprotonation and place the nucleophile within 3.2 A of the electrophilic carbonyl of the D-alanyl phosphate intermediate for formation of the transition state, molecular docking and chiral specificity of lactate and alanine dockings, detailed overview705214---

S150AEscherichia coli-mutant of D-Ala-D-Ala ligase Ddl, mutant has gained depsipeptide ligase activity, i.e. formation of D-Ala-D-Lac, D-Ala-D-hydroxybutyrate, with dipeptide/depsipeptide partition ratios that mimic the pH behaviour of D-Ala-D-lactate ligase VanA. Mutant displays a clear pH-dependent partitioning between the preferred depsipeptide product at low pH and the dipeptide product at high pH707464

additional informationBacillus subtilis-construction of several mutant strains, generating a Bacillus subtilis strain BP341A expressing a depsipeptide-containing (D-Ala-D-Lac) lipid II, phenotype, overview. Strains BP341A-E, that require expression of the VanB-type operon for growth, have mutations in the endogenous Ddl ligase716269
Q260K/A283EStaphylococcus aureus-the two amino acid substitutions result from point mutations at nucleotide positions 778 and 848, respectively. The mutant enzyme VRSA-9 synthesizes precursors ending in D-Ala-D-Lac (72%) and D-Ala-D-Ala (21%) in the absence of vancomycin. VRSA-9 Ddl shows a 200fold loss of activity and the importance of conformational changes in the dimer interface which can indirectly affect the topology of the active site715371
