The C-Type Lysozyme from the upper Gastrointestinal Tract of <i>Opisthocomus hoatzin,</i> the Stinkbird

Muramidases/lysozymes are important bio-molecules, which cleave the glycan backbone in the peptidoglycan polymer found in bacterial cell walls. The glycoside hydrolase (GH) family 22 C-type lysozyme, from the folivorous bird <i>Opisthocomus hoazin</i> (stinkbird), was expressed in <i&...
