Biosynthesis of the peptidoglycan of bacterial cell walls. VI. Incorporation of L-threonine into interpeptide bridges in Micrococcus roseus.

A particulate enzyme system from Micrococcus roseus R2J has been obtained which catalyzes the biosynthesis of a peptidoglycan. The preparation catalyzes the incorporation of L-threonine onto the e-amino group of lysine in the presence of transfer RNA @RNA), supernatant solution, and ATP.
