UDP-N-acetylmuramate-L-alanine ligase activity

Known as: UDP-N-acetylmuramate:L-alanine ligase (ADP-forming), UDP-MurNAc:L-alanine ligase activity, UDPMurNAc-L-alanine synthetase activity 
Catalysis of the reaction: L-alanine + ATP + UDP-N-acetylmuramate = ADP + 2 H(+) + phosphate + UDP-N-acetylmuramoyl-L-alanine. [EC:6.3.2.8, RHEA… Expand
