Fremgangsmåde til peptidhydrolyse, anvendelse af en sammensætning som et bakteriostatisk og bakteriedræbende mide4l og anvendelserne af den aktive form af LytM fra S. Aureus

摘要

The invention relates to new method of peptide hydrolysis, in particular of the cell walls of Gram-positive bacteria, wherein the active form of LytM or derivative thereof is contacted with a peptide substrate, preferably with the cell walls of Gram-positive bacteria, in an aqueous environment of conductivity lower than 10 mS/cm. The invention also relates to composition comprising active form of LytM or derivative thereof and new uses of active form of LytM or derivative thereof.
