FUNCTIONInvolved in muropeptide degradation. Catalyzes the hydrolysis of the gamma-D-glutamyl-diaminopimelic acid (gamma-D-Glu-Dap) amide bond in the murein tripeptide L-alanyl-gamma-D-glutamyl-meso- diaminopimelic acid, leading to the formation of L-Ala-gamma-D-Glu and Dap.
CATALYTIC ACTIVITY Reaction=H2O + L-alanyl-gamma-D-glutamyl-meso-diaminoheptanedioate = L- alanyl-D-glutamate + meso-2,6-diaminoheptanedioate; Xref=Rhea:RHEA:28398, ChEBI:CHEBI:15377, ChEBI:CHEBI:57791, ChEBI:CHEBI:61395, ChEBI:CHEBI:61401;
case <FTGroup:1>
COFACTOR Name=Zn(2+); Xref=ChEBI:CHEBI:29105; Note=Binds 1 zinc ion per subunit.;
end case
PATHWAYCell wall degradation; peptidoglycan degradation.
SUBUNITHomodimer.
SUBCELLULAR LOCATIONCytoplasm.
SIMILARITYBelongs to the peptidase M14 family.
