Rearing system, utility type and hens’ age as a factor modifying lysozyme's hydrolytic activity [PDF]
Roczniki Naukowe Polskiego Towarzystwa Zootechnicznego, 2021 The aim of study was to analyze the impact of the utility type, age and rearing system of hens on egg quality traits and the enzymatic activity of egg albumen lysozyme (LA). The material consisted of 120 eggs from two genotypes of hens: Hy-Line Brown and

, 2021 Muramidases constitute a superfamily of enzymes that hydrolyze peptidoglycan (PGN) from bacterial cell walls. Recently, a fungal muramidase derived from Acremonium (A.) alcalophilum has been shown to increase broiler performance when added as a feed ...

A Study on the Clinical Significance of Serum and Urinary Muramidase Activity in Leukemics [PDF]
, 1971 1971-06A study was made on serum and urinary muramidase in 56 patients with leukemia and other hematologic disorders. Serum and urinary muramidase levels prior to antileukemic therapy were elevated in monocytic leukemia, while not so increased in ...

<i>Pseudomonas aeruginosa</i> Cryptic Prophage Endolysin Is a Highly Active Muramidase. [PDF]
BiochemistryEndolysins are phage-encoded enzymes that cleave the peptidoglycan of host bacteria. These enzymes have gained considerable attention due to their ability to cause cell lysis, making them candidates as antibacterial agents.

Selection of virulence-associated determinants of Streptococcus suis serotype 2 by in vivo complementation [PDF]
, 2001 Within Streptococcus suis serotype 2, pathogenic, weakly pathogenic, and nonpathogenic strains can be found. We introduced a genomic library of a pathogenic strain into a weakly pathogenic strain.

Structural insights into thrombolytic activity of destabilase from medicinal leech
Scientific Reports, 2023 Destabilase from the medical leech Hirudo medicinalis belongs to the family of i-type lysozymes. It has two different enzymatic activities: microbial cell walls destruction (muramidase activity), and dissolution of the stabilized fibrin (isopeptidase ...

Extracellular and cellular distribution of muramidase-2 and muramidase-1 of Enterococcus hirae ATCC 9790 [PDF]
Journal of Bacteriology, 1992 A substantial portion of the second peptidoglycan hydrolase (muramidase-2) activity of Enterococcus hirae ATCC 9790 (formerly Streptococcus faecium) is present in the supernatant culture medium. In contrast, nearly all muramidase-1 activity is associated with cells in the latent, proteinase-activatable form.

Evidence for a renal-dependent factor in the control of muramidase (lysozyme) formation
, 1969 After bilateral nephrectomy the total body muramidase in the rat increases by about 50% in 6 h. Since there was no evidence to suggest that this increase was the result of failure to remove or inactivate muramidase, experiments were performed to measure

Pesticin displays muramidase activity
Pesticin of Yersinia pestis is the only bacteriocin that converts sensitive cells to stable spheroplasts. The amino acid sequence of pesticin as derived from the nucleotide sequence shows no similarity to those of any of the bacteriocins.

Serum Muramidase and Granulocyte Turnover
Experimental Biology and Medicine, 1968 SummaryStudies in rabbits indicate that serum muramidase activity probably is derived mostly from the degradation of granulocytes. The data also suggest that serum muramidase levels may be a useful index of granulocyte turnover.
