Description
Description: LYG2 Human Recombinant produced in E Coli is a single polypeptide chain containing 216 amino acids (20-212) and having a molecular mass of 23.9 kDa. LYG2 is fused to a 23 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
Introduction: lysozyme G-like 2 and LYGH (LYG2), is a member of the glycosyl hydrolase 23 family. Lysozyme takes part in human innate immunity by causing bacterial cell lysis. LYG2 contains a SLT domain, a protein domain present in bacterial lytic transglycosylase (SLT) and in eukaryotic lysozymes (GEWL). SLT domain catalyzes the cleavage of the beta-1,4-glycosidic bond between N-acetylmuramic acid (MurNAc) and N-acetyglucosamine (GlcNAc)
