A particulate enzyme system from Bacillus stearothermophiluswhich catalyzes the synthesis of peptidoglycan from uridine nucleotide precursors has been investigated. The preparation catalyzed extensive cross-linking of the enzymatically synthesized peptidoglycan. In addition in the presence of ATP and ammonia or l-glutamine amidation of the peptidoglycan also occurred. The nature of the amidated products obtained on lysozyme digestion of the enzymatically synthesized peptidoglycan was elucidated by a comparison with similar materials obtained after lysozyme digestion of isolated vegetative cell walls of this organism. |
