Neisseria gonorrhoeae employs two protein inhibitors to evade killing by human lysozyme.
The bacterial pathogen Neisseria gonorrhoeae (Gc) infects mucosal sites rich in antimicrobial proteins, including the bacterial cell wall-degrading enzyme lysozyme.

The Effect of Luteolin and Luteoloside on the Secondary Structure of Lysozyme
The changes of lysozyme conformation in the absence and presence of luteolin and luteoloside were investigated by spectral analysis including fluorescence, UV, CD, Raman, and ATR-FTIR, and the biological activity of lysozyme was investigated by lysozyme ...

Mechanism of Reduced Glutathione Induced Lysozyme Defolding and Molecular Self-Assembly
The distinctive assembly behaviors of lysozyme (Lys) feature prominently in food, materials, biomedicine, and other fields and have intrigued many scholars. Although our previous work suggested that reduced glutathione (GSH) could induce lysozyme to form

Microscopic mechanism of protein cryopreservation in an aqueous solution with trehalose [PDF]
In order to investigate the cryoprotective mechanism of trehalose on proteins, we use molecular dynamics computer simulations to study the microscopic dynamics of water upon cooling in an aqueous solution of lysozyme and trehalose.

Metal-Ion Assisted Imprinted Hydrogels For Recognition Of Lysozyme
Hydrogels exhibiting selectivity towards lysozyme were produced by metal-ion assisted-imprinting technology. A metal-chelate monomer N-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone is pre-assembled with the template molecule via assistance of Cu(II) ions and co-polymerized with 2-

Spatial structure and composition of polysaccharide-protein complexes from Small Angle Neutron Scattering [PDF]
We use Small Angle Neutron Scattering (SANS), with an original analysis method, to obtain both the characteristic sizes and the inner composition of lysozyme-pectin complexes depending on the charge density.

On the Stabilizing Action of Protein Denaturants: Acetonitrile Effect on Stability of Lysozyme in Aqueous Solutions [PDF]
Stability of hen lysozyme in the presence of acetonitrile (MeCN) at different pH values of the medium was studied by scanning microcalorimetry with a special emphasis on determination of reliable values of the denaturational heat capacity change.
