ID 6.3.2.35 DE D-alanine--D-serine ligase. CA ATP + D-alanine + D-serine = ADP + D-alanyl-D-serine + H(+) + phosphate. CC -!- The product of this enzyme, D-alanyl-D-serine, can be incorporated CC into the peptidoglycan pentapeptide instead of the usual D-alanyl-D- CC alanine dipeptide, which is formed by EC 6.3.2.4, D-alanine--D- CC alanine ligase. CC -!- The resulting peptidoglycan does not bind the glycopeptide CC antibiotics vancomycin and teicoplanin, conferring resistance on the CC bacteria. //
