What is (6R,2S)-Diaminopimelic acid?
The Uses of (6R,2S)-Diaminopimelic acid
Meso-2,6-diaminopimelic acid may be used to study peptidoglycan structure and function within the cell walls of bacteria.
Definition
ChEBI: Meso-2,6-diaminopimelic acid is the meso-isomer of 2,6-diaminopimelic acid. It is a key constituent of bacterial peptidoglycan and is often found in human urine due to the breakdown of the gut microbes. It has a role as a human metabolite. It is a conjugate acid of a meso-2,6-diaminopimelate(2-). It is a tautomer of a meso-2,6-diaminopimelic acid dizwitterion.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Penultimate biosynthetic precursor of the essential amino acid L-lysine. Component of peptidoglycan in the cell wall of many bacteria.
