Jolles and Canfield independently found the amino acid sequence for its hen egg variety, and the protein alpha-lactalbumin, which is found in cow's milk, is similar to it.
Jolles and Canfield independently found the amino acid sequence for its hen egg variety, and the protein alpha-lactalbumin, which is found in cow's milk, is similar to it. It cuts the beta-1-4-glycosidic bond between N-Acetylglucosamine and N-acetylmuramic acid in peptidoglycan, and is thus also known as muramidase. It's not penicillin, but it was first identified by Alexander Fleming, who noticed its ability to kill bacteria. Common in human snot, saliva, and tears, for ten points, this enzyme derives its name from its ability to make bacteria break apart.
