The Mur ligases (MurC, MurD, MurE and MurF) catalyze the stepwise synthesis of the UDP-N-acetylmuramoyl-pentapeptide precursor of peptidoglycan. The murC, murD, murE and murF genes from Staphylococcus aureus, a major pathogen, were cloned and the correspo

The first six cytoplasmic intermediates of murein biosynthesis (2-7) have been prepared in high yield (>60%) and at preparative scale (10-100 mg) using purified enzymes of the murein biosynthetic pathway (MurA-MurF). For at least three of these compounds,
