Activity: Lysozyme, with EC number 3.2.1.17 Resources: FirstGlance, OCA, PDBe, RCSB, PDBsum, ProSAT Function [LYZ2_MOUSE] 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. Lyz2 is active against a range of Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. More effective than Lyz1 in killing Gram-negative bacteria. Lyz1 and Lyz2 are equally effective in killing Gram-positive bacteria. Evolutionary Conservation Check, as determined by ConSurfDB.

Publication Abstract from PubMed The three-dimensional structure of mouse lysozyme M, glycoside hydrolase, with 130 amino acids has been determined by heteronuclear NMR spectroscopy. We found that mouse lysozyme M had four alpha-helices, two 3(10)helices, and a double- and a triple-stranded anti-parallel beta-sheet, and its structure was very similar to that of hen lysozyme in solution and in the crystalline state. The pH activity profile of p-nitrophenyl penta N-acetyl-beta-D-chitopentaoside hydrolysis by mouse lysozyme M was similar to that of hen lysozyme, but the hydrolytic activity of mouse lysozyme M was lower. From analyses of binding affinities of lysozymes to a substrate analogue and internal motions of lysozymes, we suggest that the lower activity of mouse lysozyme M was due to the larger dissociation constant of its enzyme-substrate complex and the restricted internal backbone motions in the molecule.
