Abstract
The specific activities of
l
-alanine:
d
-alanine racemase,
d
-alanine:
d
-alanine ligase, and the
l
-alanine,
d
-glutamic acid,
meso
-diaminopimelic acid, and
d
-alanyl-
d
-alanine adding enzymes were followed during growth of
Escherichia coli
. The specific activities were nearly independent of the growth phase.
d
-Alanine:
d
-alanine ligase was inhibited by
d
-alanyl-
d
-alanine,
d
-cycloserine, glycine, and glycyl-glycine.
l
-Alanine:
d
-alanine racemase was found to be sensitive to
d
-cycloserine, glycine, and glycyl-glycine. The
l
-alanine adding enzyme was inhibited by glycine and glycyl-glycine.
