Protein Domain : D-alanine--D-alanyl carrier protein ligase IPR010072

Type  Family
Description  DltA is part of the operon for incorporation of D-Ala residues into lipoteichoic acids (LTAs), which requires the activity of four gene products (DltA to DltD). DltA is a cytoplasmic D-alanine-D-alanyl carrier protein ligase that catalyses the D-alanylation of the D-alanyl carrier protein DltC (or Dcp); DltB is a transmembrane protein thought to be involved in the efflux of activated D-alanine to the site of acylation; and DltD is thought to be a membrane-associated protein that may have multifunctional activities (hydrolysis of mischarged DltC, facilitation of D-alanine ligation to DltC and D-alanylation of LTAs) [ , ].
