Crystal structures of active LytM.

Journal of molecular biology - 2 Dec 2005

Firczuk Małgorzata, Mucha Artur, Bochtler Matthias

Abstract excerpt

Lysostaphin-type enzymes are metalloendopeptidases that are present in bacteriophages and in bacteria. They share the catalytic domain, but normally contain other domains as well. The well-characterized enzymes in this group are all specific for the pentaglycine crosslinks in the cell walls of some Gram-positive bacterial species. Lysostaphin-type enzymes are synthesized as secreted preproenzymes and require...
