Unexpected Inhibition of Peptidoglycan LD-Transpeptidase from Enterococcus faecium by the β-Lactam Imipenem

The β-lactam antibiotics mimic the d-alanyl4-d-alanine5 extremity of peptidoglycan precursors and act as “suicide” substrates of the dd-transpeptidases that catalyze the last cross-linking step of peptidoglycan synthesis. We have previously shown that bypass of the dd-transpeptidases by the ld-trans...
