No activity with UDP-GlcNAc and 1-diphospho-MurNAc-pentapeptide. Enzyme catalytic mechanism and substrate specificity, overview. The essential aspartate residue, that is invariant in the superfamily, is Asp98 in Bacillus subtilis MraY, the residue is involved in the deprotonation of the lipid substrate during the catalytic process. UDPMurNAc, UDP-MurNAc-L-Ala, UDP-MurNAc-L-Ala-D-Glu and UDPMurNAc-L-Ala-gamma-D-Glu-meso-diaminopimelate precursors of the peptidoglycan biosynthesis pathway are all substrates of the enzyme, no activity with 1-diphospho-MurNAc-pentapeptide. No activity with isopentenyl phosphate as lipid substrate, the enzyme is highly active when tested with neryl phosphate, heptaprenyl phosphate, dodecaprenyl phosphate, and pentadecaprenyl phosphate Bacillus subtilis ? - ? 89 2.7.8.13 additional information assay method development for high-throughput screening assays and metadata annotation, overview Bacillus subtilis 168 ? - ? 89 2.7.8.13 additional information the enzyme does not display any diphosphatase activity on the nucleotide substrate.
