The dipeptide D-alanyl-D-alanine is an essential precursor of bacterial peptidoglycan; thus, blocking its formation is a possible target for the design of novel antibacterial agents. The synthesis of this dipeptide by bacterial D-alanine:D-alanineligase requires ATP. In analogy with glutamine synthetase, we hypothesized a mechanism for this enzyme involving the intermediacy of D-alanyl phosphate.
