Exploring the Enzymatic and Antibacterial Activities of Novel Mycobacteriophage Lysin B Enzymes
Mycobacteriophages possess different sets of lytic enzymes for disruption of the complex cell envelope of the mycobacteria host cells and release of the viral progeny. Lysin B (LysB) enzymes are mycolylarabinogalactan esterases that cleave the ester bond between the arabinogalactan and mycolic acids...
