Active Native Human Lysozyme

• Cat.No.: LYZ-249H

Specification

• Description: Lysozyme occurs in specific granules of human polymorphonuclear leukocytes and takes part in the antibacterial activity of the leukocytes. It hydrolyzes beta-1,4 links between N-acetylmuramic acid or 2-acetamido-2deoxy-D-glucose residues in mucopolysacchride, mucopolypeptide or chitin.
