Crystal structure of the engineered endolysin mtEC340M

Acta Crystallographica Section F Structural Biology Communications, 2023
Endolysins produced by bacteriophages play essential roles in the release of phage progeny by degrading the peptidoglycan layers of the bacterial cell wall. Bacteriophage-encoded endolysins have emerged as a new class of antibacterial agents to combat surging antibiotic resistance.

Bacteriophage endolysins

In the last phase of their life cycle, bacteriophages form lytic enzymes known as bacteriophage endolysins that destroy the bacterial cell wall and liberate new virions. Endolysins have emerged as high-scope antimicrobial agents, especially against Gram-positive infections, due to their specificity, rapid action, and ability to target essential cell ...

A Computational Method for the Identification of Endolysins and Autolysins

Protein & Peptide Letters, 2020
Background: Cell lytic enzyme is a kind of highly evolved protein, which can destroy the cell structure and kill the bacteria. Compared with antibiotics, cell lytic enzyme will not cause serious problem of drug resistance of pathogenic bacteria. Thus, the study of cell wall lytic enzymes aims at finding an efficient way for curing bacteria infectious.

The structure of DLP12 endolysin exhibiting alternate loop conformation and comparative analysis with other endolysins

Proteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, 2017
AbstractThe lytic enzyme, endolysin, is encoded by bacteriophages (phages) to destroy the peptidoglycan layer of host bacterial cells. The release of phage progenies to start the new infection cycle is dependent on the cell lysis event. Endolysin encoded by DLP12 cryptic prophage is a SAR endolysin which is retained by the bacterium presumably due to ...
