ENZYME entry: EC 6.1.1.13

Accepted Name
D-alanine--poly(phosphoribitol) ligase
Alternative Name(s)
D-alanine: membrane acceptor ligase
D-alanine-activating enzyme
D-alanine-D-alanyl carrier protein ligase
D-alanine-membrane acceptor ligase
D-alanyl-poly(phosphoribitol) synthetase
Reaction catalysed
ATP + D-alanine + poly(ribitol phosphate) <=> AMP + diphosphate + O-D-alanyl-poly(ribitol phosphate)
Comment(s)
  • A thioester bond is formed transiently between D-alanine and the sulfhydryl group of the 4'-phosphopantetheine cofactor of D-alanyl carrier protein during the activation of the alanine.
  • Involved in the synthesis of teichoic acids.
