            $diaminopimeloyl-D-alanyl-D-alanine synthetase
CLASS       Ligases
            Forming carbon-nitrogen bonds
            Acid--amino-acid ligases (peptide synthases)
SYSNAME     UDP-N-acetylmuramoyl-L-alanyl-D-glutamyl-meso-2,6-
            $diaminoheptanedioate:D-alanyl-D-alanine ligase(ADP-forming)
REACTION    ATP + UDP-N-acetylmuramoyl-L-alanyl-D-glutamyl-meso-2,6-
            $diaminoheptanedioate + D-Alanyl-D-alanine = ADP + Orthophosphate
            + UDP-N-acetylmuramoyl-L-alanyl-D-glutamyl-6-

            UDP-N-acetylmuramoyl-L-alanyl-D-glutamyl-meso-2,6-
            $diaminoheptanedioate
            D-Alanyl-D-alanine
PRODUCT     ADP
            Orthophosphate
            UDP-N-acetylmuramoyl-L-alanyl-D-glutamyl-6-
            $carboxy-L-lysyl-D-alanyl-D-alanine
COMMENT     The enzyme from Bacillus subtillis also catalyses the reverse,
            hydrolytic, reaction in the presence of ADP, orthophosphate and
            Co2+. No formation of ATP, however, was observed.
