CC -!- FUNCTION: Catalyzes the formation of the pentaglycine interpeptide
CC bridge, which is characteristic of the S.aureus peptidoglycan. Adds
CC glycines 2 and 3 of the pentaglycine bridge, using glycyl-tRNA(Gly) as
CC donor.
CC -!- CATALYTIC ACTIVITY:
CC Reaction=beta-D-GlcNAc-(1->4)-Mur2Ac(oyl-L-Ala-D-isoglutaminyl-L-Lys-
CC (N(6)-Gly)-D-Ala-D-Ala)-di-trans,octa-cis-undecaprenyl diphosphate +
CC 2 glycyl-tRNA(Gly) = 2 H(+) + MurNAc-L-Ala-D-isoglutaminyl-L-Lys-
CC (N(6)-tri-Gly)-D-Ala-D-Ala-diphospho-di-trans,octa-cis-undecaprenyl-
CC GlcNAc + 2 tRNA(Gly); Xref=Rhea:RHEA:30439, Rhea:RHEA-COMP:9664,
CC Rhea:RHEA-COMP:9683, ChEBI:CHEBI:15378, ChEBI:CHEBI:62234,
CC ChEBI:CHEBI:62235, ChEBI:CHEBI:78442, ChEBI:CHEBI:78522; EC=2.3.2.17;
CC -!- SUBUNIT: Homodimer. Interacts with FemB (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cytoplasm {ECO:0000269|PubMed:7590176}.
CC -!- MISCELLANEOUS: Since cross-linking between the peptide strands is
CC critical for maintaining stability of the cell wall, FemA is a
CC potential target for the development of new antibacterial agents.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the FemABX family. {ECO:0000305}.
CC -!- SEQUENCE CAUTION:
CC Sequence=CAA35679.1; Type=Erroneous initiation; Evidence={ECO:0000305};
