Description

Peptidoglycan Synthetase CAS NO 9042-06-2 is a crucial enzyme complex involved in the biosynthesis of peptidoglycan, the primary structural polymer of bacterial cell walls. Its activity is fundamental for bacterial cell division and integrity, making it a key target for antibacterial research and development. This enzyme is essential for researchers in pharmaceutical discovery, microbiology, and biochemistry, particularly for those developing novel antibiotics and studying bacterial physiology and resistance mechanisms.

Application

• Antibiotic Discovery & Development: Primary target for screening and developing new classes of antibacterial agents that inhibit cell wall synthesis.
• Biochemical Research: Used in enzymatic assays to study the kinetics and mechanisms of peptidoglycan biosynthesis.
• Microbiology Studies: Essential for investigating bacterial growth, division, and the mechanisms of action of β-lactam and glycopeptide antibiotics.
• Enzyme Inhibition Studies: Serves as a substrate for high-throughput screening (HTS) to identify and characterize potential enzyme inhibitors.
• Educational & Diagnostic Tools: Used in academic settings and diagnostic kits to demonstrate bacterial cell wall synthesis pathways.

Quality Control

Our Peptidoglycan Synthetase is produced and tested under stringent conditions to ensure high purity and consistent enzymatic activity for research applications. Each batch is accompanied by a comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing key parameters such as specific activity, purity profile, and stability data. We adhere to relevant quality management standards to guarantee reliable and reproducible performance in your critical experiments.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store at -20°C or below for long-term stability. This material is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); ensure the container is sealed tightly after each use to prevent degradation. For short-term use, keep at 2-8°C and avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
