Product Description:
D-Ala-D-Ala is a dipeptide that plays a crucial role in the biosynthesis of bacterial cell walls. It is a key component in the formation of peptidoglycan, which provides structural integrity to bacterial cells. This molecule is specifically recognized by enzymes involved in the cross-linking of peptidoglycan strands, making it essential for bacterial survival and growth. Due to its involvement in cell wall synthesis, D-Ala-D-Ala is a target for certain antibiotics, such as vancomycin, which binds to it and inhibits cell wall construction, leading to bacterial cell death. Research on D-Ala-D-Ala also contributes to understanding antibiotic resistance mechanisms, particularly in cases where bacteria modify this dipeptide to evade antibiotic action. Additionally, it is used in biochemical studies to explore bacterial metabolism and develop new antimicrobial strategies.
