Structure guided design of an antibacterial peptide that targets UDP-N-acetylglucosamine acyltransferase

UDP-N-acetylglucosamine (UDP-GlcNAc) acyltransferase (LpxA) catalyzes the first step of lipid A biosynthesis, the transfer of an R-3-hydroxyacyl chain from its acyl carrier protein (ACP) to the 3-OH group of UDP-GlcNAc. Essential in the growth of Gram-negative bacteria, LpxA is a logical target for...
