Glycopeptide bond synthesis involved

TABLE 17.7 Linkages and enzymes involved in the synthesis of glycopeptide bonds... 

Vancomycin and other glycopeptides inhibit cell wall synthesis by non-covalent binding to the D-Ala-D-Ala peptide motif of the cell wall precursor lipid II [10]. Four hydrogen bonds are formed when vancomycin binds the D-Ala-D-Ala motif, and all of these involve the peptide backbone [1,10], as shown in Figure 1.2.
