Microbial cell wall lytic enzyme from Bacillus FERM BP-2841

摘要

The present invention is directed to an isolated microbial cell wall lytic enzyme (NmCWLE) produced from alkalophilic Bacillus FERM BP-2841 which has a molecular weight of about 27,000 daltons as determined by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, an optimal pH on lytic activity being about pH 10.0, an optimal temperature on lytic acivity being about 50 DEG C., pH stability of lytic enzyme being pH 5-11, temperature stability of lytic enzyme being up to 40 DEG C. and being alkali-tolerant.
