Recombinant human LYG2 protein
LYG2, also as known as lysozyme G-like 2 and LYGH, belongs to the glycosyl hydrolase 23 family. Lysozyme plays an important role in human innate immunity by causing bacterial cell lysis. The protein contains a SLT domain, a protein domain present in bacterial lytic transglycosylase (SLT) and in eukaryotic lysozymes (GEWL) . SLT domain catalyzes the cleavage of the beta-1, 4-glycosidic bond between N-acetylmuramic acid (MurNAc) and N-acetyglucosamine (GlcNAc) . Recombinant human LYG2 protein, fused to His-tag at N-terminus, was expressed in E. coli and purified by using conventional chromatography techniques.
