    Summary
    Imported muropeptides must contain the disaccharide GlcNAc-anhMurNAc, which is also efficiently transported without attached peptides. [More information is available at EcoGene: EG12183]. AmpG is a member of the major facilitator superfamily of transporters, and together with AmpD, is essential for induction of the AmpC -lactamase and is involved in the recycling of cell wall peptides . [More information is available at EcoCyc: EG12183].
