OX NCBI_TaxID=9088; RN [1] RP PROTEIN SEQUENCE. RC TISSUE=Egg white; RX MEDLINE=91136781; PubMed=1368578; RA Araki T., Kuramoto M., Torikata T.; RT "The amino acid sequence of Lady Amherst's pheasant (Chrysolophus RT amherstiae) and golden pheasant (Chrysolophus pictus) egg-white RT lysozymes."; RL Agric. Biol. Chem. 54:2299-2308(1990). CC -!- FUNCTION: Lysozymes have primarily a bacteriolytic function; those CC in tissues and body fluids are associated with the monocyte- CC macrophage system and enhance the activity of immunoagents. CC -!- CATALYTIC ACTIVITY: Hydrolysis of (1->4)-beta-linkages between N- CC acetylmuramic acid and N-acetyl-D-glucosamine residues in a CC peptidoglycan and between N-acetyl-D-glucosamine residues in CC chitodextrins. CC -!- SUBUNIT: Monomer. CC -!- MISCELLANEOUS: Lysozyme C is capable of both hydrolysis and CC transglycosylation; it shows also a slight esterase activity. It CC acts rapidly on both peptide-substituted and unsubstituted CC peptidoglycan, and slowly on chitin oligosaccharides. CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the glycosyl hydrolase 22 family.
