Properties
Description
Recombinant Streptococcus pneumoniae lysozyme 25A produced by Escherichia coli, is involved in the hydrolysis of 1,4-β-linkages between N-acetylmuramic acid and N-acetyl-glucosamine residues in peptidoglycan, as well as between N-acetyl-D-glucosamine residues in chitodextrins.
Expression System
Escherichia coli
Species
Streptococcus pneumoniae
Purity
≥90%, determined by SDS-PAGE.
Buffer
35 mM NaHepes buffer (pH 7.5), 750 mM NaCl, 200 mM imidazole, 3.5 mM CaCl2, and 25% (v/v) glycerol
Applications
Recombinant Streptococcus pneumoniae lysozyme 25A can be used as an antibacterial agent in the research for the food industry. It has the ability to hydrolyze 4-nitrophenyl-α-D-glucuronopyranoside.
