The Bifunctional Cell Wall Hydrolase CwlT Is Needed for Conjugation of the Integrative and Conjugative Element ICEBs1 in Bacillus subtilis and B. anthracis [PDF]
, 2014 The mobile genetic element ICEBs1 is an integrative and conjugative element (ICE) found in Bacillus subtilis. One of the ICEBs1 genes, cwlT, encodes a cell wall hydrolase with two catalytic domains, a muramidase and a peptidase.

Differentiation of Muramidase and -Lysin
Experimental Biology and Medicine, 1966 SummaryAlthough β-lysin and muramidase are similar in their bacterial spectrum, heat stability, and adsorption by bentonite on an asbestos-cellulose filter pad of the Seitz type, they differ in other respects. β-lysin is relatively more effective as a bactericidal agent for Bacillus subtilis than for Micrococ-cus lysodeikticus.

Blood Muramidase Activity in Colorectal Cancer [PDF]
BMJ, 1974 The serum muramidase levels were measured in 128 patients with primary or metastatic colorectal cancer, 166 tumour-free patients after resection of a colorectal cancer, and 172 controls. Muramidase levels over 10 mug/ml were detected in 30%-39% of the tumour-bearing patients, in 8.2% of the tumour free, and in only 1.7% of the controls (normal level 6 ...

Cutaneous eccrine glands of the foot pads of the rock hyrax (Procavia capensis, Hyracoidea, mammalia) [PDF]
, 2002 In order to find correlations between skin gland morphology and specific ethological features, the cutaneous glands of the foot pads of Procavia capensis were studied by histological and various histochemical methods and by electron microscopy.

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.

British Journal of Nutrition, 2020 Muramidases constitute a superfamily of enzymes that hydrolyse peptidoglycan (PGN) from bacterial cell walls. Recently, a fungal muramidase derived from Acremonium alcalophilum has been shown to increase broiler performance when added as a feed additive.

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView., 2023 In the present study, we created the weight gain models with Min and Yorkshire pigs and conducted the metagenomics and metabolomics of colon contents and transcriptomics of colon tissue. Further, we revealed the characteristics and functions of the colonic microbiota in Min and Yorkshire pigs and analyzed their interactions with the host. Overall, this

Characterization of Braun's lipoprotein and determination of its attachment sites to peptidoglycan by 252Cf-PD and MALDI time-of-flight mass spectrometry [PDF]
, 1995 A strategy for the characterization of bacterial lipoprotein-in this case Braun's lipoprotein (an outer membrane 7-ku lipoprotein) isolated from Escherichia coli —is described by time-of-flight mass spectrometric (TOF/MS) techniques [252Cf plasma ...

A Rapid and Sensitive Assay of Muramidase.
Experimental Biology and Medicine, 1965 SummaryAn improved method has been developed for assay of muramidase in several biological systems. This method involves measurement of the rate of lysis of a 25 mg% suspension of M. lysodeikticus in 0.05 M NaCl and M/15 phosphate buffer, pH 6.2. The rate of lysis is measured in a Beckman DB spectrophotometer at 540 mμ with an attached recorder.
