Identification of the l,d-Transpeptidases for Peptidoglycan Cross-Linking in Escherichia coli
Open accessAbstract
Three active-site cysteine l,d-transpeptidases can individually anchor the Braun lipoprotein to the Escherichia coli peptidoglycan. We show here that two additional enzymes of the same family form peptide bonds between the third residues of peptidoglycan stems, generating meso-DAP 3→meso-DAP 3 unusual cross-links. This activity partially replaces the d,d-transpeptidase activity of penicillin-binding proteins.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
