in addition to racemization activity, enzyme exhibits DNA gyrase activity by preventing DNA binding of gyrase. Sequestration of gyrase results in inhibition of all reactions catalyzed by DNA gyrase. Overexpression additiionally provides protection against ciprofloxacin |

Chlamydia trachomatis dapF encodes a bifunctional enzyme capable of both D-glutamate racemase and diaminopimelate epimerase, EC 5.1.1.7, activities. Diaminopimelate and glutamate appear to be competitive substrates, indicating that they share an active site despite the racemase reaction requiring the PLP cofactor |
| 5.1.1.3 | more |
the enzyme is a physiologically bifunctional alanine/glutamate racemase (EC 5.1.1.1/EC 5.1.1.3), it is not highly active, but it is clearly sufficient. The metC encoded L-alanine/L-glutamate racemase is a multifunctional CBL/ALR. CBL (EC 4.4.1.13) activity is no longer required in these bacteria |
