Structural and functional features of plant lysozymes are reviewed. All lysozymes also have chitinase activity, but not all plant chitinases are also lysozymes. However, for many chitinases it is not yet known if they also possess lysozyme activity. Enzymes with lysozyme activity occur in different, structurally unrelated, families of chitinases. Plant

The natural substrate of lysozyme is the rigid layer of bacterial cell walls, the murein (peptidoglycan), which is a gigantic polymer of (GlcNAc-MurNAc)n polysaccharide strands crosslinked through short peptide bridges at the lactyl groups of the muramic acid residues.

Lysozymes are found in many bacteria that are surrounded by a murein-(peptidoglycan) containing cell wall. Their physiological function for the bacteria is still a matter of debate. On the one hand they can autolyse the cell, on the other hand they may have an essential role during enlargement and division of the cell wall by the controlled splitting ...

Bacteriophage genomes encode lysozymes whose role is to favour the release of virions by lysis of the host cells or to facilitate infection. In this review, the evolutionary relationships between the phage lysozymes are described. They are grouped into several classes: the V-, the G-, the lambda- and the CH-type lysozymes.

Lysozymes, related to the chicken-type lysozymes in vertebrates, are ubiquitous components in the bacteriolytic armamentarium of insects. The enzyme is normally present in the blood, and together with other bactericidal factors lysozyme is often strongly induced when the insect is infected.

Structure
Lysozyme is a model system for crystallographers. In this issue of Structure, Ramos et al. report atomic resolution neutron structures of lysozyme, which unambiguously show the protonation states and hydrogen-bonding networks of the active site. This resolves mechanistic questions that have been debated for decades and provides a unique view to a ...

In the first section the assay methods of lysozyme are reviewed. It is pointed out that there is no method using the hydrolysis of NAM- > beta-1, 4-glycoside bond- > NAG, So to clarify relation between methods will lead to discovery of new isozymes. In the second chapter serum or urinary lysozyme levels are discussed in the states of diseases. The high
