The Lipid I and II building blocks may be further elaborated by many other enzymes that modify the sugars or amino acid chains. Branched peptides are added to the Lipid I and II peptide chains either by enzymes that act in an ATP-dependent fashion similar to the MurC-F ligases [39], or by enzymes that add amino acid residues from aminoacyl tRNA intermediates, such as the S. aureus enzymes FemA, FemB and FemX, which form the pentaglycine bridge (O Fig. 3) [36], and the S. pneumoniae enzymes FemM and FemN, which form an L-Ser-L-Ala or L-Ala-L-Ala dipeptide bridge [34,35]. Lipid II is also the substrate for the sortase enzymes that catalyze the attachment of surface proteins for incorporation into peptidoglycan [40].
