Cloned(Commentary)

Cloned (Comment) Organism
overexpression of wild type MurA Escherichia coli

Crystallization (Commentary)

Crystallization (Comment) Organism
MurA is crystallized in the presence of sodium phosphite and UDP-N-acetylmuramic acid using the hanging drop vapor diffusion method, the MurA cocrystal structure with UDP-N-acetylmuramic acid and phosphite reveals a new staged MurA conformation in which the Arg397 side chain tracked phosphite out of the catalytic site Escherichia coli
