Product Description
Lysozyme (LYZ) is a low molecular weight alkaline enzyme that can hydrolyze mucopolysaccharides in pathogenic bacteria. Lysozyme is a component of the normal immune defense mechanism of the body,which is named for its ability to dissolve bacterial cell walls. Mainly by breaking down the β-1,4 glycosidic bond between N-acetylmuramic acid and N-acetylglucosamine in the cell wall, the cell wall insoluble mucopolysaccharide is decomposed into soluble glycopeptides, resulting in the rupture of the cell wall and the escape of the contents to dissolve the bacteria. In the human body, LYZ is present in neutrophils, monocytes and macrophages, also present in mucosal secretions, becoming one of the body surface defense factors.
OsrhLYZ, expressed in the rice endosperm platform and purified by chromatography, is animal component free, more bioactivity, also has high antimicrobial bioactivity, non-toxicity.
