in complex with 9-benzyl purine inhibitors
crystal structures of MurI of Helicobacter pylori, Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Enterococcus faecalis and Enterococcus faecium are analysed under similar, physiologically relevant conditons. MurI of Staphylococcus aureus, Enterococcus faecalis and Enterococcus faecium all form homodimeric structures. In all these structures, monomers oligomerize in a tail-to-tail orientation with active sites opposed and fully exposed to solvent
