Comments [?]

Function Cell wall formation. Catalyzes epimerization of the terminal L-glutamate in UDP-N-acetyl-alpha-D-muramoyl-L-alanyl-L-glutamate.
Catalytic activity RHEA:58812: ATP + H2O + UDP-N-acetyl-alpha-D-muramoyl-L-alanyl-L-glutamate = AMP + diphosphate + H(+) + UDP-N-acetyl-alpha-D-muramoyl-L-alanyl-D-glutamate
EC 5.1.1.23
Pathway Cell wall biogenesis; peptidoglycan biosynthesis.
Similarity Belongs to the MurL family.
