L,D-transpeptidase 2 from plays a key role in the formation of the cell wall of a pathogen and catalyzes the cross-linking of growing peptidoglycan chains by non-classical 3-3 bonds, which causes resistance to a broad spectrum of penicillins. Molecular modeling of enzyme interactions with the N- and C-terminal tetrapeptide fragments of growing peptidoglycan chains has been performed for the first time and has allowed us to highlight the peculiarities of their binding at the formation of 3-3 cross-linkages, as well as to build a full-atom model of L,D-transpeptidase 2 for the screening and optimizing of inhibitors' structures.
来自[具体来源未给出]的L,D-转肽酶2在病原体细胞壁的形成中起关键作用,并通过非经典的3-3键催化生长中的肽聚糖链的交联,这导致对广谱青霉素产生抗性。首次对酶与生长中的肽聚糖链的N端和C端四肽片段的相互作用进行了分子建模,这使我们能够突出它们在形成3-3交联时结合的特殊性,并构建L,D-转肽酶2的全原子模型以筛选和优化抑制剂的结构。
