KEGG   ENZYME: 6.2.1.54
Entry
EC 6.2.1.54                 Enzyme                                 
Name
D-alanine---[D-alanyl-carrier protein] ligase;
dltA (gene name);
Dcl
Class
Ligases;
Forming carbon-sulfur bonds;
Acid-thiol ligases
Sysname
D-alanine:[D-alanyl-carrier protein] ligase
Reaction(IUBMB)
ATP + D-alanine + holo-[D-alanyl-carrier protein] = AMP + diphosphate + D-alanyl-[D-alanyl-carrier protein] (overall reaction);
(1a) ATP + D-alanine = (D-alanyl)adenylate + diphosphate;
(1b) (D-alanyl)adenylate + holo-[D-alanyl-carrier protein] = AMP + D-alanyl-[D-alanyl-carrier protein]
Substrate
ATP [CPD:C00002];
D-alanine [CPD:C00133];
holo-[D-alanyl-carrier protein];
(D-alanyl)adenylate
Product
AMP [CPD:C00020];
diphosphate [CPD:C00013];
D-alanyl-[D-alanyl-carrier protein];
(D-alanyl)adenylate
Comment
The enzyme is involved in the modification of wall teichoic acids, as well as type I and IV lipoteichoic acids, with D-alanine residues. It activates D-alanine using ATP to form a high-energy (D-alanyl)adenylate intermediate and subsequently transfers the alanyl moiety to the covalently-bound phosphopantheinyl cofactor of a D-alanyl-carrier protein (DltC).
