Direct Amide Bond Formation By A Spore Peptidoglycan Biosynthetic Enzyme

Madison E. Hopkins, Zachary Yasinov, Mark J. Fakler…·Michael A. Welsh

This study identifies SwsB as a muramic-δ-lactam cyclase that forms amide bonds without requiring metal ions or energy input, revealing a novel enzymatic mechanism in spore peptidoglycan biosynthesis.
