SIMILAR HYDROPHOBIC REPLACEMENTS OF LEU 99 AND PHE 153 WITHIN THE CORE OF T4 LYSOZYME HAVE DIFFERENT STRUCTURAL AND THERMODYNAMIC CONSEQUENCES
Structural highlights
1l95 is a 1 chain structure with sequence from Escherichia virus T4. Full crystallographic information is available from OCA. For a guided tour on the structure components use FirstGlance.
ENLYS_BPT4 Endolysin with lysozyme activity that degrades host peptidoglycans and participates with the holin and spanin proteins in the sequential events which lead to the programmed host cell lysis releasing the mature viral particles. Once the holin has permeabilized the host cell membrane, the endolysin can reach the periplasm and break down the peptidoglycan layer.[1]
