Beschreibung

O-Methyl-D-threonine is an amino acid that is biosynthesized from O-methylserine and D-threonine. It belongs to the class of β-lactam antibiotics and inhibits peptidoglycan synthesis by binding to the catalytic site of the enzyme synthase, which is required for the formation of β-lactam rings in peptidoglycan. The crystal structure of O-methylserine has been determined and analyzed. Mutations in the catalytic tripeptide have been shown to affect its activity, as well as protonation state and carboxylate groups.
