Serine and alanine racemase activities of VanT: A protein necessary for vancomycin resistance in Enterococcus gallinarum BM4174

Vancomycin resistance in Enterococcus gallinarum results from the production of UDP-MurNAc-pentapeptide[D-Ser]. VanT, a membrane-bound serine racemase, is one of three proteins essential for this resistance. To investigate the selectivity of racemization of L-Ser or L-Ala by VanT, a strain of Escher...
