D-Ala-D-Ala is a bacterial endogenous metabolite. D-Ala-D-Ala constitutes the terminus of the peptide part of the peptidoglycan monomer unit and is involved in the transpeptidation reaction as the substrate. D-Ala-D-Ala is catalyzed by D-Alanine-D-Alanine ligase [1] [2] [3]. Uses: Scientific research. Group: Peptides. CAS No. 923-16-0. Pack Sizes: 100 mg; 250 mg; 1 g; 5 g. Product ID: HY-W015450.
D-Ala-D-Ala dipeptidase
A Zn2+-dependent enzyme. The enzyme protects Enterococcus faecium from the antibiotic vancomycin, which can bind to the -D-Ala-D-Ala sequence at the C-terminus of the peptidoglycan pentapeptide (see diagram). This enzyme reduces the availability of the free dipeptide D-Ala-D-Ala, which is the precursor for this pentapeptide sequence, allowing D-Ala-(R)-lactate (for which vancomycin has much less affinity)to be added to the cell wall instead. The enzyme is stereospecific, as L-Ala-L-Ala, D-Ala-L-Ala and L-Ala-D-Ala are not substrates. Belongs in peptidase family M15. Group: Enzymes. Synonyms: D-alanyl-D-alanine dipeptidase; vanX D-Ala-D-Ala dipeptidase; VanX. Enzyme Commission Number: EC 3.4.13.22. Storage: Store it at +4 ?C for short term. For long term storage, store it at -20 ?C?-80 ?C. Form: Liquid or lyophilized powder.

Vancomycin Hydrochloride
Vancomycin is an aminoglycoside antibiotic, used in the treatment of infections caused by Gram-positive bacteria. vancomycin is not active against Gram-negative bacteria (except some non-gonococcal species of Neisseria). The main target of this antibiotic is the D-alanyl-D-alanine terminal dipeptide of peptidoglycan precursors, used by bacteria for constructing their cell walls. This prevents the reaction used to link peptidoglycan precursors together from taking place. Vancomycin binds with the substrate, not the enzyme, in contrast to the way penicillin inhibits peptidoglycan synthesis.The large hydrophilic molecule is able to form hydrogen bond interactions with the terminal D-alanyl-D-alanine moieties of the NAM/NAG-peptides. Under normal circumstances, this is a five-point interaction. This binding of vancomycin to the D-Ala-D-Ala prevents cell wall synthesis in two ways. It prevents the synthesis of the long polymers of N-acetylmuramic acid (NAM) and N-acetylglucosamine (NAG) that form the backbone strands of the bacterial cell wall, and it prevents the backbone polymers that do manage to form from cross-linking with each other.
