LYZ2 Protéines

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. Lyz2 is active against a range of Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. More effective than Lyz1 in killing Gram-negative bacteria. Lyz1 and Lyz2 are equally effective in killing Gram- positive bacteria.
