Structural highlights
FunctionLYSC_CHICK Lysozymes have primarily a bacteriolytic function; those in tissues and body fluids are associated with the monocyte-macrophage system and enhance the activity of immunoagents. Has bacteriolytic activity against M.luteus.[1] Publication Abstract from PubMedA crystal structure of lysozyme in complex with p-sulfonato-calix[4]arene (sclx4) reveals a linear assembly of protein tetramers glued together by protein-calixarene interactions. One interaction involves encapsulation of the highly exposed C-terminal Arg128. The other involves an intricate protein-bound complex of sclx4, Mg(2+) and a fragment of polyethylene glycol. Protein assembly mediated by sulfonatocalix[4]arene.,McGovern RE, McCarthy AA, Crowley PB Chem Commun (Camb). 2014 Aug 12;50(72):10412-5. doi: 10.1039/c4cc04897k.
