Application

Micrococcus lysodeikticus ATCC No. 4698 has been used in a study to assess lysozyme separation by hollow-fibre ultrafiltration. It has also been used in a study to investigate the encapsulation of protein drugs in biodegradable microparticles.
Lysozyme lysates harvested from cultures of Micrococcus lysodeikticus were attached to sepharose and used for affinity chromatography to isolate various bacteriolytic enzymes.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Micrococcus luetus is a Gram-positive bacteria that is identified by the release of yellow water-insoluble pigments. This species requires succinic acid for its growth and is found to be susceptible to β-lytic metalloendopeptidase lyses by Lysobacter enzymogenes. Its membrane includes enzymes that participate in the prenylation reactions by utilizing prenyl pyrophosphates as donors. M. luteus is known to be used for cloning the cis-prenyl transferase gene.

Analysis Note

Contains polynucleotide phosphorylase.

Other Notes

One unit will lyse 0.6 μg of Micrococcus lysodeikticus per minute by turbidimetric detection at 600 nm when suspended in buffer at pH 6.2 at 25 °C.

Ingestion and killing of bacteria by phagocytic cells protect the human body against infections. While many mechanisms have been proposed to account for bacterial killing in phagosomes, their relative importance, redundancy, and specificity remain unclear. In this study, we used

A co-axial electrospray process was developed to encapsulate protein-based drugs in biodegradable polymeric microparticles eliminating the key problem faced by other conventional methods of protein encapsulation--the primary emulsion being a major cause for protein denaturation and aggregation.

This paper discusses the purification of lysozyme from chicken egg white using hollow-fibre ultrafiltration (30kDa MWCO, polysulphone membrane). Lysozyme is preferentially transmitted through the membrane while the membrane largely retains other egg white proteins. Improvement in system hydrodynamics resulted in

The nucleotide sequence of atlL, a gene encoding a putative Staphylococcus lugdunensis peptidoglycan hydrolase, was determined using degenerate consensus PCR and genome walking. This 3837-bp gene encodes a protein, AtlL, that appears as a putative bifunctional autolysin with a 29-amino

Protocols

To measure achromopeptidase activity, this procedure uses bacterial cells and a turbidimetric rate assay. Turbidity is measured at 600 nm using a spectrophotometer.

This enzymatic rate determination may be used for Lysozyme products. It is not to be used to assay recombinant or insoluble Lysozyme on agarose.

该酶速率测定可用于溶菌酶产物。它不适用于在测定在琼脂糖上的重组型或不溶性溶菌酶。
