Kinetic properties of Streptococcus pneumoniae hyaluronate lyase.

Glycobiology - 1 Apr 2001

Kelly S J, Taylor K B, Li S, Jedrzejas M J

Abstract excerpt

Streptococcus pneumoniae hyaluronate lyase is a surface antigen of this bacterial pathogen, which causes significant mortality and morbidity in human populations worldwide. The primary function of this enzyme is the degradation of hyaluronan, a major component of the extracellular matrix of the tissues of practically all vertebrates. The enzyme uses a processive mode of action to degrade hyaluronan to a final...
