4n5r
Hen egg-white lysozyme phased using free-electron laser dataHen egg-white lysozyme phased using free-electron laser data
FunctionFunction
[LYSC_CHICK] Lysozymes have primarily a bacteriolytic function; those in tissues and body fluids are associated with the monocyte-macrophage system and enhance the activity of immunoagents. Has bacteriolytic activity against M.luteus.[1]
