Muramidase

More information in Books or onNLM PubMed
Definition: A basic enzyme that is present in saliva, tears, egg white, and many animal fluids. It functions as an antibacterial agent. The enzyme catalyzes the hydrolysis of 1,4-beta-linkages between N-acetylmuramic acid and N-acetyl-D-glucosamine residues in peptidoglycan and between N-acetyl-D-glucosamine residues in chitodextrin. EC 3.2.1.17.  an anti-infective glycoside hydrolase   
Pharmacological Action Anti-Infective Agents
Other names Lysozyme; N Acetylmuramide Glycanhydrolase; Glycanhydrolase, N-Acetylmuramide; N-Acetylmuramide Glycanhydrolase; Leftose
