Structure and function of Mycobacterium tuberculosis meso-diaminopimelic acid (DAP) biosynthetic enzymes.

Veeraraghavan Usha1, Adrian J Lloyd, Andrew L Lovering, Gurdyal S Besra.   

Abstract

Because of an increased emergence of resistance to current antitubercular drugs, there is a need for new antitubercular agents directed against novel targets. Diaminopimelic acid (DAP) biosynthetic enzymes are unique to bacteria and are absent in mammals and provide a rich source of essential targets for antitubercular chemotherapy. Herein, we review the structure and function of the mycobacterial DAP biosynthetic enzymes.
