Surface representation of MurM binding site
(A) MurM159 model aligned and overlaid with the UDP-MurNAc-pentapeptide substrate, which was co-crystallized with W. viridescens FemX.
(B) MurM159 model with truncated Lipid II docked in the binding site, using AutoDock Vina.
(C) MurM159 model with Lipid II in the binding site, from membrane simulations. Figures were created with PyMOL (version 2.2.0) and Chimera (version 1.13.1).
