Comments
The enzyme is involved in the modification of wall teichoic acids, as well as type I and IV lipoteichoic acids, with?D-alanine residues. It activates?D-alanine using ATP to form a high-energy (D-alanyl)adenylate intermediate and subsequently transfers the alanyl moiety to the phosphopantheinyl prosthetic group of a?D-alanyl-carrier protein (DltC).
